Just as
StumbleUpon (a popular toolbar that recommends web pages)
is rumored to have been acquired by eBay (congrats, Garrett!), Google personalization guru Sep Kamvar
announces a similar feature integrated into the Google Toolbar.
StumbleUpon recommends web pages based on pages you explicitly rate while the Google Toolbar recommendation feature learns from the implicit information in your Google search history to determine what kinds of web pages you seem to like. In my usage, both return a lot of misses and some hits, enough hits to be fun and occasionally useful exploration tools.
