Review (in 1996):

"Pretend to be your favorite evil dictator or television sitcom character and I'll try to guess who you're supposed to be", invites this page (the creation of a cleverly twisted Berkeley student).

It's like Twenty Questions: you just answer yes or no to queries like "Do you work in a news room?" and "Are you a landlord who favors leisure suits?" Believe it or not, the server swiftly and correctly identified our chosen characters, first Jack Tripper from Three's Company, and then Benito Mussolini. (And aren't they related?)

Conclude what you like about the predictability of dictatorship or TV stardom, but there's no arguing this is just the kind of delightful waste of time the Web accomplishes best.

As reviewed in the 1996 "World Wide Web Top 1000" - a review of the Top 5% of all Web Sites in 1996.
