Mirsky's Drunk Browsing Test: INTRODUCTION

The sounds: a disgusting medley of clicks and burps. The sights: your nose glowing the same color as the links on your monitor. You're on the WWW and you're sloshed.

It doesn't matter why, though maybe it's from playing The Mirsky-Style WWW Drinking Game.

The WWW is a public place. In the United States, The Exon/Gorton Communications Decency Act is now law. Sending threatening e-mail to the President is still an offense, but now so is sending flattering e-mail to the author of Doodie.com.

The Drunk Browsing Test hopes to be your online breathalyzer. I'm not a doctor, substance-abuse professional or even psychologically stable. It will thus take me a trial-and-error process to find methods to determine your level of intoxication.
