There is a website called I Write Like (http://iwl.me/) that analyzes your writing and tells you which famous author you most closely resemble. I tried the test and it said I most write like Arthur Conan Doyle. That's pretty cool since I'm in the "search" business. :) Who do you write like?

I Tried three of my articles:
1) David Foster Wallace
2) Kurt Vonnegut
3) Lewis Carroll

Pretty random if you ask me!

Yea, its probably just a "novelty". I haven't heard of David Foster Wallace. I had an English teacher in college that loved Kurt Vonnegut.

She even does poetry, I hate poetry. Unless it is a greeting card..

That has got to be a random generator, otherwise the mind behind the script would be a freakin' genious :) It takes like 0,03 seconds for the script to analyze the text.. seems a little to fast if you ask me.

I got Mark Twain when I posted a random Swedish text.
