New Mind Reading Website Will Blow Your Movie-Loving Mind

by Matt Raub, Jan 26 2010 // 10:00 AM

Picture 1The internet gods have come up with a few impressive time-wasters over the past couple of years. From the birth of flash games to pictures of kittens to an endless supply of “Vampire vs. Zombie vs. Tree”-style games on Facebook, there are certainly many things to do to keep you away from actual work.

In that same vein comes The Akinator, a mind-reading website that will tell you exactly what character–be it film or TV–that you are currently thinking of. While the name isn’t all that impressive (sounds too much like a machine that turns you into a former American Idol), but the service will definitely impress you.

We’ve been passing this around the Flickcast offices, trying to stump the so-called “web genius” and we’ve yet to find a wrong answer. From characters like The Stay-Puft Marshmallow man to Captain Mal Reynolds, the web-app is definitely a fun time-waster, and will even impress you along the way.

Be sure to check out The Akinator, and let us know if you finally come across a discrepancy in the system.
