Of no relation to the Generator.x project, the Generator Blog is a gathering place for software that generates content according to simple rules. Or in their words:

This blog is not about those machines used to change mechanical energy into electrical energy. It’s about software that creates software. Software to play around and have fun with.

Some sample generators: Word Generator, Dummy Text Generator, Cat Name Generator. A definite classic, the Blog-o-Matic Generator generates blog entries of the angsty rant type popular with personal weblogs.

Most of these generators utilize simple text grammars applied to a problem of limited scope (i.e. creating a plausible cat name). A more ambitious project of the same type is the Postmodern Essay Generator, powered by the Dada engine for generating random text from grammars.
