It looks as though the Netflix Prize might have been won through a combined effort of the top two teams. (thx, bergmayer)
Update: All teams have 30 days to better the current high score before the winner is declared. But, someone has won the Prize. (thx, all)
A check of the Netflix Prize leaderboard shows that the team in the lead is very close to the 10% improvement needed to win the $1 million prize with 9.71%. Three members of the top team recently wrote about their experience for IEEE Spectrum.
The best way to get a sense of what kottke.org is all about is to head to the front page or check out some random entries from the archives.
