The Third Bit

Am I the only one who thought that said “Zune” (then thought “Greg, have you sold out to Microsoft)?

Thank you for pointing out Wordle! They should create contests where you take similar documents, like the five acts of Hamlet or the dozen or so books of Paul, and challenge your friends to guess which is which merely from the word frequencies.

I wonder whether people could tell politicians apart from word frequency? How would one hundred Obama speeches and one hundred McCain speeches compare on Wordle?

I had that same question, Brandon. I love wordle, it is certainly fun but also quite telling.

So I put in all of Obama’s speeches from June and all of McCain’s from June into Wordle and ta-da:

Very interesting I think!!
