# Not really a repost...my new website, now with added domain name.
What mood is the Internet in?

Also now with added guestbook and a figure telling you how much happier/sadder/indifferent the Internet is from the last time you checked.

Cheers.

# Hmmm cool idea
should words like 'high' 'gay' 'content' 'low' 'light' and 'down' be included given they have other definitions?

# and "Blessed"
I'll bet most of those point back to this site but in the Brian sense, probably used in a cheerful light though...

# Excellent - now do a "What mood is the world in?"
that searches the newsfeeds.

You'll have to give me a while on that one...

# yay ... internet for its own sake
(although I think words like "blue" and "gay" will skew it as most of the time they'll be used with a different intention)

# I thought about discounting those....

# Putting the word "content"
under Happy must cause some false positives in that category.

edit: and "gay".

# Yeah but....
...I needed some base to start from. The use of dictionary.com seemed as good a place as any.

# But surely you could have just omitted such an ambiguous word
during the process of compiling the script? It can't be hard to just not put it in the list. Or to remove it at any stage.

I mean, great idea and everything . . .

# Yeah I could take it out right now...
...but rules are rules.

I suppose I could introduce a new rule saying that any word with a blatant double or triple meaning is excluded...

edit: If anyone wants to list the words they think should be taken out in the forum over there I'd be much obliged. *doffs cap*

# Ideally, what you need is to separate words from their homographs.
Like with "content", you need to catch "am content", "is content", "be content", etc. and not "the content" or ">content<" (so's to avoid hyperlinks called "content"). Not perfect, but if done thoroughly it could be significantly more accurate.
(The Ghost of Stephen Foster, Mon 8 Mar 2004, 18:56, archived)
# Now that's an idea...
...I just tried removing said 'ambiguous' words and to be honest you could go on all day arguing the toss. I think adding key words like 'am' to 'content' is the way forward.

# Look out
for words prefixed by "not".
