The Gender Genie

Based on the work of some Israeli linguists, this algorithm looks at a chunk of text and guesses whether or not the author was male or female. In the original study it guessed correctly something like 90% of the time, though the web-based tool has a lower success rate.

A quick rundown of the blogs I tested:

Me - Consistently guessed male
Adrienne - Mostly guessed female, one false male guess
Budman - Consistently guessed female
Sean - Mostly guessed male, one false female guess

I'm not sure what this proves, apart from the fact that Budman apparently has a very feminine writing style.]]> http://vorg.ca/2399-Who-Is-The-Girliest-Sillytecher-Of-Them-All? goodladd blogs sillytech gender 2007-04-21T14:19:46-04:00 http://vorg.ca/2399-Who-Is-The-Girliest-Sillytecher-Of-Them-All?#replies
