random

For example, this image can be described by the labels: sky (50 points), bird (60 points), soaring (120 points), or frigate bird (150 points).
Google Image Labeler, a new feature of Google Image Search that allows you to label random images to help improve the quality of Google's image search results.



Is this the end of civilisation the random pun and poetic compound of the Google Image Search? It is the random quality of Google Images that I appreciate, and in honour of its odd surprises, I compiled a collage from the search "I prefer random images"

Nooo, it was just like coincidental, seriously.

(And no - but it would be nice to say:
I've had 11 actual boyfriends and 135 pashes)

I am a bamboo knitting needle!

And you can hear me making random

... always speckled bamboo blinds
Sometimes random is the best pattern
