20 Questions at its Finest

I have an iPhone. I am definitely not tech savvy, but I do love some of its functions. I enjoy apps, but do not tend to download very many, because I am not the type of person to use these apps all day long. However, I discovered an app not very long that has absolutely blown me away. Everyone knows the game 20 questions; well this is an app that you can play 20 questions with the computer. Your goal is to think of a celebrity, character in a movie, athlete, video game character or anything similar to those. and it has 20 guesses to discover who it is you are thinking of. It is AMAZING to me how often the Akinator (the name of the app) can correctly guess who is in your head in 20 guesses or less.

I mention this app to again talk about creativity. Whoever created this app must have a near unlimited amount of information to know all of these facts about a plethora of people and characters. The creator of Akinator also was required to make a system that had to use so many variables and options. This fantastic system works at a great pace and a great amount of accuracy.

This app, at least as of now, is my favorite one. I read somewhere that there are a total of over 630,000 apps ever created. This statement almost blows my mind of how creative our world is. A lot of these apps are helping people in our world with issues of convenience (gps, access facebook, or keep a diet). They are also used just to have fun playing games. Either way, these digital creations are growing and growing and growing and becoming more and more creative. Apps would have been unheard of only 10 years ago.
