I'm thinking of modifying the title- and text-generating of webXcreta
in its generation of posts to
Schrodinger's Box.
Here's what may be cooking:
Update: Schrödinger's Böx is now occasionally generating posts based solely on the content of previous posts.

in its generation of posts to
Schrodinger's Box.
Here's what may be cooking:
- Get all the content from the top 500 blogs like I currently am, and
keep using the current weighting algorithm - But, also get all the content for every post to Schrodinger's Box
- Have the content from Schrodinger's Box contribute towards a
significant fraction of the material for each new post - And give posts with more comments greater weights
- And! Include the comments from those posts as part of the source
material from which new posts are created (but weighted considerably
less than full posts)
Thus making Schrodinger's Box self-referential... simulating theme and
continuity. I think this would be very interesting, allowing
Schrodinger's Box to "gain momentum" as it were.
