Google’s was just as clever as YouTube, and combined a touch of Sci-Gen with Web Crap 2.0 for theirs.
Google Front-Page Announcement for CADIE
I have to admit, they got me . “Singular upgrade” sounded like complete crap to me, but I did actually hope they were announcing some new features into Gmail or other apps. Nope, turned out to be this Sci-Genish paper. Admittedly at this point I suspected a roll; the “press release” is all about hype with little mention of what the technology actually does or provides of benefit, but then isn’t that Web 2.0 ?

It’s April 1st, click-through is mandatory. So this should be a website designed by this AI array after analysing multiple site designs … cute. Note the blog entry that states the AI has received autonomy and is seperating from it’s inventory/master. Classic robot theme. This appears to be an actual blogspot page, and you can follow it, comment, etc like any other blog.
