Actual Cool Things: The Akinator!

Here?s the greatest thing currently on the Internet: The ator program!

Here?s what you do: Simply go to the link and think up a character, real or fictional, from anything, ever. Once you have that in mind, The ator will begin asking you a series of questions. Most of them seem pretty harmless at first, but soon enough, on or before question 20, he correctly guesses your character.

This program can read your mind!

For me, the program already guessed Alf, Travis Bickle and Data from ?The Goonies?. (The one he didn?t guess ? Scottie Ferguson from ?Vertigo? ? he guessed the second time I did it, so there is a bit of a learning curve in the algorithm it seems.) In any case, say goodbye to a productive Monday and, more importantly, say goodbye to the future of the human civilization. This is how Skynet starts, people!
