Bloog RSS Mod-Synth makes your favorite blogs even less intelligible
The Bloog is a machine that scrambles blog posts by pulling them in from an RSS feed and then filtering them down into little haiku-like packages. The machine's creator, Andrew Haarsager, is a student of industrial design and says that he fashioned its look after a Moog synthesizer from the '60s. The result almost reads like a fortune cookie would: "Prior to making / wrapped up / announcments / Your help STILL needed."
The Bloog monitors posts in realtime and its knobs and sliders allow you to insert and remove words, and scroll through the text. It's so impractical, yet I really want one.

This must be where these very strange blogs come from. I started getting google alerts on some very strange blogs. I figured someone was trying to get more hits to their website. If anything this product is good for that until we find a way to filter out these "garbage" sites.
