    Try this questionnaire thingie.

    The silicon version of 20 questions. Haven't managed to stump it with American or UK sitcom characters or dictators, but no doubt RTE's back catalogue might give it problems for a while.

    I like the fact that it can guess George W. Bush pretty fast...

    I'm impressed. It didn't get the character I was thinking of but it did manage to get the show.

    That things great! Guessed Kryten from Red Dwarf (but how many other people have a groinal attachement?) and guessed Edmund Blackadder, which is pretty impressive since there were 4 different times and jobs involved with that one.

    It guessed Sam Seaborn from the West Wing... Bloody heck, thats good...

    Got Dr. Phil too... Neither of whom are either dictators nor sitcom characters, might I add...

    With all the user input to the database, its expanded from sitcoms to other types of shows too it seems. It got James T Kirk from ST after about 25 questions.
