How to Find Similar Sites with Tags by Ann Smarty, Search Engine Journal (Sept 8)
Describes Similar Site Search, a service that claims to finds sites similar to the one you enter. The "about page" says that "Similar website search is mainly based on user annotations or tags on websites. "
Results page shows tags and confidence level. But, I think, this points to weaknesses in tags - especially the one-word kind. My site - websearchguide.ca, which is about web search, shows a 82% similiarity to Factbites - a search service - because of common tags - search, searchengine, reference. But might be worth a shot - some other sites came up done by guides.
