Google Experiments

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the mad-mad-scientists dept.

gafferted writes "The boffins at google have been experimenting with new toys, such as Keyboard Shortcuts and glossary, but most fun is Google Sets. Try "green, purple, red" to get a set of 40 different colours. Try a set that contains both Richard Stallman and Bill Gates, see what google associates with Slashdot or ask for a set of rude words."

    "see what google associates with Slashdot or ask for a set of rude words."

    I think you may be the coolest person I ever met, because you used the phrase "grepping for inbound boobies". I need a bumper sticker of that or something.
