The tremendous popularity of Online Social Networks (OSN) has led to situations, where users have their profiles spread across multiple networks. These partial profiles reflect different user characteristics, depending mainly on the nature of the network, e.g., Facebook's social vs. LinkedIn's professional focus. Combining data gathered by multiple networks may benefit individual users, and the community as a whole, as this could facilitate the provision of more accurate services and recommendations. This paper reports on an exploratory study of the process of making such recommendations using a unique multi-network dataset containing user interests across multiple domains, e.g., music, books, and movies. We represent the data using a graph model and generate recommendations using a set of features extracted from and populated by the model. We assess the contribution of various network- and domain-related features to the accuracy of the recommendations and motivate future work into automated feature selection.
