Agreed. BTW, twitter has the same problem, and provides a completely terrible solution by emailing me recommendations of people to follow, which I ignore with extreme prejudice.

Though this may have to change as the site grows, I personally feel at this stage that the best path to quality recommendations for new users involves leveraging the 'badges' page.
