ever wanted to play 20 questions with someone, but there's nobody around to play with you? there's now a webpage that is freakishly accurate that plays 20 questions against you.

it guessed these correctly.
Joe Camel
Hercule Poirot
James Hyneman
Larry Page
Tucker Max
Vito Corleone (the godfather)

Does it star Bill Murray?

thing is eerily good at pulling the win out of nowhere at the last second

Pretty neat. It has problems with Danes. Scandinavia is usually the last place it looks. It got our prime minister in 20, though. Needed 30 for Michael Laudrup. Never got Mads Mikkelsen (Le Chiffre).

Also needed 30 to guess our queen, but maybe it shouldn't have used it's 20th question to ask if she was an FBI-agent, when I had already confirmed she was royalty (and a female European).

If you do any of those again, it'll get there much faster. It learns from every person that goes through it.

I just did it with Sylvia Plath and I am absolutely shocked that it came up with it based on the questions that were asked

it never even wanted to know living or dead. never found out if it was a writer/poet/etc

wow

xtendmedia.com is an advertising network that is not above browser hijacking and other malware related activities. If you view this site in ie you may see popup ads despite popup blocking and I can't tell what might happen after that. If you are in ff with noscript running you would be fine.

If you don't surf the Internet in FF with NoScript you should. And use OpenDNS.
