Gender Bender
Wednesday, November 19th, 2008The artificial intelligence behind the Gender Analyser tool is 62% sure that the writer of this blog is a man.
According to the poll on the site, it’s wrong 47% of the time – so it’s as good as a coin toss. It was also wrong about Joe. Try it out on your blog, and let me know if it’s right about you.

It thinks my blog was written by a lay-dee but it’s not really about lay-dee’s things and shit so I don’t know what happened along the way. The percentage was high too! I noticed though on their results overall from various sites, they’re wrong nearly half the time!

It got mine right (78%), but a few weeks back it told me I was a girl, so go figure.

Hey Tim, it’s interesting that its results vary over time, or maybe you started blogging butch after the initial assessment…
