The Geek

I'm is officially a geek. Here's a transcript of what had transpired:

[friend1]u going swimming?

[me]oh wait...is it available online?

[friend2]HOW GEEKY IS THAT!

[friend2]LOL!

Now, I've a certain penchant for searching for all sorts of data online. Like I really don't know what I'd do were it not for my Navi. *hug* Anyway, I was doing my usual thing and had figured that information pertaining to the opening and closing times of the swimming complex would be conveniently posted on a related website. My response, understandably, was rather hilarious when read by a third party (namely, my friend). No, I do *not* swim online and yes, do please make an effort to take me out of context.

Well, for the rest of the day, I'd gone and reencountered The Gender Genie which is a scripted site with an algorithm for approximating an author's gender. I am rather skeptical when it comes to the algorithm's accuracy because people from different regions have different writing styles and "like" need not be a word per se for it is often used as a figure of speech. Take everything with an ocean's mass in salt, says I.
