Track the most popular sites you visit with REKO
REKO is a Firefox extension that tracks the most popular sites that you visit and uses the information to find similar users who will have relevant links for you. How does it work? REKO gets sent the domains of the websites you visit, then adds them to your profile and compares them with similar browsers that match your profile. This can also include OPML feeds for RSS subscriptions. From there you can view the sites of closely related individuals, checking out their profiles and seeing what they are visiting. Sounds like a great option if you are on the lookout for more sites to add on to your daily list. However, there is the privacy issue. Now, if there was a way to turn it on and off, or erase certain sites from your online profile, we could be talking about a great way to check out some additional sites we might like.
The site is still relatively small, with 25 registered users who've decided to trade privacy for shiny magic beans, tracking 4,382 domains.
UPDATE - weirdguy in the comments has let us know that you can indeed exclude certain URLS from being tracked. Thanks for the tip!

That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
