55 Ways to Have Fun With Google

3. Memecodes: Survival of the Fittest Web

Pages

Memecodes are web pages with randomly created texts which are born

and die over the course of time. How is that possible? By basing those

pages on the rules of evolution: the more often a page is found and

clicked on in Google – the more popular it is – the more offspring it

produces.

The title Memecodes is a word play on Richard Dawkins memes from his

book “The Selfish Gene”

. In it, he wrote:

Examples of memes are tunes, ideas, catch-phrases, clothes

fashions, ways of making pots or of building arches. Just as

genes propagate themselves in the gene pool by leaping

from body to body via sperms or eggs, so memes

propagate themselves in the meme pool by leaping from

brain to brain via a process which, in the broad sense, can

be called imitation.

I created this experiment in early 2004 to watch it grow, with some

interesting results. Here’s how it worked in detail. First, based upon a

dictionary of words, pages with random texts were created. To make

sure the texts looked rather natural, words like “the” or “and” as well

as punctuation were added. The resulting pages contained

Jabberwockyish

paragraphs such as this one:

Cognac? Is sloth is waist is declare of bramble flood in of

stoical. Footman... Hesitancy a for attention flabby wanton

and calculate vtol cyclamate that paprika feign the aline

fourth qualifications of in. Thatch, Saccharin hansom

rationale in dine numbers.

This page – or set of “genes” – was unique in the whole set of pages

which made up the “ecosystem.” Now there was a possibility certain

sentences or fragments of sentences made sense. One sentence, for

example, contained the phrase “corpulent pigeons,” which someone

did indeed search for in Google. As soon as that happened and the

searcher clicked on the Memecodes result, this particular page created

offspring – it “mated” with the searcher, if you will. The offspring of

any page was the same page slightly mutated by randomly replacing

some of its words. This way, maybe “corpulent pigeons” became

“corpulent pink pigeons” (surely that would have had the chance to be

an even more successful gene) or it could turn into “corpulent tower

pigeons” (and face certain death over time, because rarely do people

search for such a thing!).

How did pages die then? There was a page population limit of a little

over 2,000 pages. Whenever a new page was born, the oldest page

would be removed (the link from the front-page of the Memecodes

experiment pointing to this page would be removed). If a page didn’t

manage to create offspring until then, its genes were unsuccessful in

surviving and would therefore not be continued.

Other genes (random texts) would be more successful, though. And

some of the successful pages would become even more successful in

turn, possibly finding a natural search niche to settle into: they lured

more and more searchers to find them by creating more and more

“natural language.” One day, the pages might even turn into

Shakespeare, and it wouldn’t need infinite monkeys to pull it off! Or

rather, that was my hope. But evolution takes a lot of time to show

results, and after little more than a year, I stopped the experiment.

Until then, however, a lot of people found their way onto the site and

thus produced offspring. All in all, a walloping 10,022 pages were born

(about 2,500 of those seed pages created automatically in the

beginning), with some Memecodes in their 5

generation.

Some of the popular sentences were truly strange, like “feel the wrath

of salivating mushroom eating frog aliens with microwave ovens,” or

the more down-to-earth “seagull sandwich.” Other sentences were

circling around the word “torrent,” because “Torrents” had started to

become a popular way to download video and other files on the web.

The only clearly recognizable pattern in successful genes, however,

were exotic words and word combinations I can’t even print here for

reasons you might be able to guess: they were all about “adult” topics.

Then again, I guess that’s nature!
