jfbThis (found on Virtual Turntable) is great. The author did a statistical analysis of the words used in Pitchfork music reviews, used the positive and negative scores to "generate a set of compositional guidelines," and wrote some songs.
In other news, I did the "frequent commenters" and "mindmap" memes, and the results weren't very interesting.
