Sad to say, even though I have PhD from an Ivy League university, I never learned Latin. So, when looking at some layouts for a newsletter the other day, I was trying to decipher the greeking, and failed. The words of the great Roman author, Cicero, from whose "The Extremes of Good and Evil" the Latin text often referred to as "lorem ipsum" is taken, remained, well, Greek to me.
Thankfully, I need mourn my utter lack of a proper, classical education no longer. The friendly folks at the MIT Advertising Lab, with this post, pointed me to a lorem ipsum generator that is completely devoid of meaning, made as it is entirely of names for Web 2.0 companies.
Hey, Cicero! How do you like these apples? - Eskobo goowy manjam. Guba simpy bebo, zecco plazes moola gpokr. Idio moola umundo zingee jaxtr mikons foldera doostang!
I'm glad you liked that generator! Looks like you can speak Web 2.0 now too! (heh)
