Ha, I tried one that stumped the little "20Q" handheld game and it stumped this too. My object was "sunglasses."

I used Ice Cream and he got it after 30Q. Interesting - I wonder how much programming this took.
Or is there some poor fella on the other end trying to figure it out? ;)

How about none - it is done in flash. |

Well, there must be a database somewhere right? Flash doesn't just read minds. I guess by programming I meant how large of a database (and corresponding answers to questions) was needed to construct this.
Interestingly enough, it guessed "Camera Lens" after 17 questions.

| Yes and the database is old and in the public domain and has been for over 15/20 years? and this has been done hundreds of times. People get the database and put a new flash front end on it. |

And it guesses by someone answering the questions originally and stumping the 'whatever' and then putting in their answer at the end and sending it. Now that same line of questions will flag camera lens as the answer. The more people that take it and enter their answers after stumping it, the 'smarter' the database gets. It is a pseudo form of AI originaly created by GURU back in the late 70's, early 80's.

Ahh.. thanks for the heads up Alienyst - I was curious how this would've worked.
I've never seen it before, but am having fun playing with it :P

I should be shot for even trying the thing, but I guessed hairbrush and he never got it. I had to type it in at the end. I always knew I was stronger than him. ;)
