Since it’s early March, I’m doing my April/Read of England planning, including a draft of the “Reading of England, 20__!” post I publish on the first. I’d written up a very brief intro paragraph in the style of Bertie Wooster, and then with a bit of whimsy I wondered if Bing could do it. I’ve been impressed by its ability to tell me the weather in the style of Foghorn Leghorn, and to tell me the day’s headline news as though Jane Curtin and Gilda Radner were doing a “Weekend Update” sketch about it.

The purple is my instructions, the white is my response. Amusingly, both my intro paragraph and Bing’s started with “What ho!”, though mine is “What ho, readers all!”.
