I'll give you credit for the answer... I was initially hoping to see 'real-world' examples, but this article is well written and a great resource for all mahout users. Thanks! – Byrann

Answer 2

I used Mahout to implement a distributed recommender system. Our project was to develop a mobile platform to create collaborative filtering recommendations. We gathered data from the users and then used Mahout + Hadoop to make the recommendations.
