For the blog readability test (http://www.criticsrant.com/bb/reading_level.aspx), my blog is rated at Genius as shown by the new button on my site. So far everyone else who's done it has also gotten a genius rating which makes me a little doubtful about the validity of the tool.
On Wordshoot http://cognitivelabs.com/word_shoot.htm (supposed to improve my typing skills)- I can type really quickly with hunt and peck so I kept going until there were words coming from all 4 directions and then I stopped. Still I got a score of 13000 and 94% accuracy. Didn't improve my keying at all though.
Yahoo Answers ( http://answers.yahoo.com/ ) I am appalled at kinds of questions being asked--if your mobile phone is not working shouldn't you contact your phone provider instead of posting a question on an open site. And I am appalled at the fact that I got lots of points for typing answers that I made up to random questions. At least Wikipedia has some controls just because of the way it's structured. I can't imagine having the time to post a questions and then wait for random answers. I did think about trying to answer 50 or 100 questions with a link to FVRL or ask your local library! It would be more useful than what's on there now!
