Nifty

Looking to waste a little time or give your brain a rest? Visit 20Q.net and play a game of 20 questions (you can login anonymously). This is the virtual version of the handheld game 20Q. The really cool thing about 20Q is that it learns as it goes, so it incorporates the game it played with you into its store of knowledge to use in future games with other people. Like a child, it gets smarter with every experience.

During my lunch break I gave it a whirl and was impressed with how the game managed to finally guess the correct item. The game figured out in less than 20 questions when I tried snow and feather boa (which totally stunned me). I managed to take it past 20 questions with dvd player and cheese, but it did eventually get it. I finally won the game with blog. Let me know if you manage to stump it! :-)
