The Doo-Dah News Generator


This isn’t even tangentially related to science fiction, other than the fact that it uses a computer and illustrates the vast power of the Internet. As nearly as I can tell, the vast power of the Internet is more or less entirely centered around conferring unlimited opportunities to be silly.

The Doo-Dah News Generator monitors worldwide news feeds and displays those headlines that can be sung to the tune of “Camptown Races” if you add “Doo-Dah” to the end.

“Prince Cleared to Extend Retreat”
“Papers Ponder Marriage Perks”
“Al Gore’s Son Released from Jail”

It’s oddly soothing.
