Gnod

Gnod, short for Global Network of Discovery, is a long running collection of recommendation and exploration projects built by Marek Gibney. Its stated purpose is to use recent technology to help people discover more and better things, and it grew out of the creator's interest in artificial intelligence and new user interfaces. The site is organized by subject. Gnod Music offers a Discover tool that uses Gnod's AI to find bands a visitor may like, and a Music Map that presents related artists as a tourist style map. Gnod Literature and Gnod Movies follow the same pattern, with a Discover tool for authors or films and a Literature Map and Movie Map for browsing related titles. Gnod Art provides AI driven discovery of art, Gnod Products offers a Product Chart as a visual approach to finding products, and Gnod Search provides a search engine comparison that lets a visitor choose a different engine for each query. The tools are aimed at general users looking for new music, books, films and art, and at anyone who prefers visual, map based browsing to lists of results. The creator states that over 300,000 people use the site each month. The site does not publish plans or prices and has no account or pricing page. Visitors can use the projects directly, and the creator invites support through a Patreon page.
