A suggestion is made to take that bullshit bingo thing to its online extreme: Use buzzwords of the online world for the bingo card and play the game using your online reading. Hm, that one was to tempting to pass on…
… just for me to discover that it would require serious work – and then remembering that actually the 'Pro' (read: non-light) version of NetNewsWire supposedly the script is completely useless, mindlessly stupid (allowing duplicates, not having the centre field, poor expression matching, just creating a filled out card without seeing whether you've won) and only moderately funny. It requires a Mac, the Pro version of NetNewsWire (30 day demo – $40 thereafter) and UnicodeChecker (free, but I think you would get away without it). I guess this is a 'laugh once and throw away' script, so I won't put any effort into removing its obvious flaws. Enjoy.

The only problem with Microsoft is: they just have no taste..
Well, I’m suitably impressed. Writing a script for the Punditster is beyond my skills — and the list I’ve compiled increases everyday.
For further automated inspiration you might want to check out R.Robot, which follows strict rules and is alot of fun.
As I say, the script really isn’t sophisticated at all as can be seen in the example I link to.
If you have a Mac, just download the script, double click it and you can add further words at the top of the file (mingled with sufficient amounts of commas and curly brackets).
