		<description>@Eric: I&#039;ve definitely thought about both those things. I was initially unsure what to use as header text for the generate pages. I decided to use something generic because generating a title that was relevant to the invention text would be tricky.

I like the permalink idea. I&#039;ll take a look at it tomorrow when I get some free time. Also, I want to add some kind of &quot;invention pending&quot; text and animation after you click the generate button. Getting the Markov processor to work on a sizable sample of text in a reasonable amount of time was the main hurdle I faced when developing the app. I think I found a happy median, but the ~13 second delay with no feedback isn&#039;t exactly ideal.

Thanks for the feedback and advice! I really appreciate it.</description>

		<description>This is awesome, a great little creative entry to the contest. My main request is to have it generate a name for the invention, instead of just &quot;Your invention&quot;.

Permalinks would be nice for particularly good ones. Maybe make it so you have to press a button to generate a permalink and store the existing one, so that you your database doesn&#039;t fill up by visits alone.

Incidentally, it&#039;s not too late to add in things post-submission, with the caveat that you don&#039;t know when it&#039;s going to get judged, so make sure it stays working.  If you&#039;re worried about bugs, then just wait til the judging period is over.</description>

		<description>At the moment, none of the inventions are stored, but I&#039;ll keep your request in mind. Thanks!</description>
