It would be really interesting to view some statistics as to how accurate the test is across participants. It guessed I was 29 when I am 34, which seems relatively close -- but how do I compare to others in terms of error?
It guessed 8 years too young for me. Looking at that result and the ones below, it doesn't seem like it's doing a whole lot better than randomly picking an age in the 30 +/- 5 range.<p>I'd like to see how it does with folks further out on the age spectrum - less than 20 or greater than 50.
This was on HN a few days ago and it worked well for me so I asked my audiance on youtube and it didn't stack up very well. See the results in the comments <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_K6bSVKao5I" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_K6bSVKao5I</a>
I am 46 and it guessed 34, I figured it would err wildly in the other direction because I have a crappy mouse here at work and could have done much better with my usual mouse.
I am 31. It guessed 31. For a moment I was sitting there thinking "did browser security just break completely and they somehow scraped into a social media profile of mine?"
