Generating domain names using Markov Chains

The new Web 2.0-esqe (or dare i say Web 3.0-esqe) nomenclature is dominated by "double-vowels" (Wii, xumii, mobee) or "vowel-combos" (cuil) not often found in normal english. So this approach will not succeed in giving you a really innovative name. Probably you need to perturb the Markov-chain to achieve that or waste a lot of free time digging your cognitive faculty!

As an aside - Markov Chains are a key tool in Bioinformatics (Hidden Markov Models).

Very cool ... but I don't want the code, I just want a web app to generate names for me (and check that the domain is available, of course).<p>C'mon, where's markovr.com?

All this script needs is the bulk-whois gateway on the other end. But seriously, anyone know of a whois service who allows free high-volume lookups?

Silly python people always writing lots of code. This should be, like, 15 lines.<p><a href="http://search.cpan.org/~rclamp/Algorithm-MarkovChain-0.06/lib/Algorithm/MarkovChain.pm" rel="nofollow">http://search.cpan.org/~rclamp/Algorithm-MarkovChain-0.06/li...</a>
