Hmm...interesting.

I read about The Gender Genie in Neil Gaiman's journal.

You give it a hunk of text and it analyzes it and tells you whether or not the author is male or female. So, I plugged in the first paragraph of my last entry and it thought the author was male.

I added the second paragraph, and it thought the author was female.

Is this 'cause of the whole bisexual thing? *grin*

Rather cool. Tried it on two entries of mine, and it correctly guessed "female."

It seems convinced I'm female. -shrug-

Am I the only person amused with the fact that random guessing would be correct about as often as The Gender Genie? (50% as opposed to 50.65%, at the moment.) :-)

I gave it several passages done by a straight male friend of mine, and it gave two of them as female, one as male.

It seems to do better with a longer block of text, although I still managed to come up male one out of five times.

I gave it a short story I wrote, and it came up unequivocally female.

They're batting almost exactly random, after all.
