    I invite you to visit NewZoid, the artwork that is the world's only source
    of computer-generated false headlines at
    <http://newzoid.com/nzheadlinecombo.asp>http://newzoid.com/nzheadlinecombo.asp.

    A work of generative art, NewZoid has been producing a constant automatic
    flow of false news headlines since April 2001. It also allows user
    participation and voting.

    It is considered humorous entertainment by some such as Yahoo and new media
    art by others such as Rhizome. I am urging recognition as generative
    literary art, in the great tradition of art that reflects and reacts to the
    realities of its time.
