Hi everyone
I’ve recently found
an excellent search engine –
MYSQL ERROR #126 : Incorrect key file for table ‘./spamer/urls.MYI’; try to repair itSELECT u.url as url ,k.key as `key` FROM `urls` as u left join keywords as k on (u.keyword_id = k.id) where u.id in (136484153673,637029,724862,1079072,816576,1345927,1204729,1262276,1095387,1266243)
P.S. Yahoo – everything will be found! Google: nothing was really lost…

See you!

actually, there are plenty of language geeks (poets) working with aleatoric text generating techniques including cut-up but also procedural “writing through” of already existing texts. see the work of jackson maclow and john cage for examples from the fifties and sixties on. babble’s fun, and so is running text multiple times through altavista’s babelfish. see camille pb for some interesting aleatoric, text-generated work, especially her piece from paris hilton’s legal testimony in a court case:

she also has many links to other text generators on the net.

IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ve been looking for something good in this vein for ages!! ItÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s got to the point that IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ve been considering building something like a cross between a web spider and a summarizer to get that special randomness – tough project though

I actually used this for a while, when my Win 3.1 computer was new. I had a great time with my wordy friends – we generated some text files of our own to mix in and just about died laughing.

I recall getting e-mail from a super-computer-geek friend about this recently. I will have to see if he’s found something. This is a guy who surfs Icelandic TV archive web sites, etc. so maybe he’ll find something good.

Nope, you’re not the only person interested in this, I am too. Thanks for hosting the file!

Also you might be interested in the Dave McKean / Neil Gaiman Graphic Novel “Signal to Noise”, which uses the Babble engine for some of its more noise led double page spreads.
