Prince (the artist formerly known as "The Artist Formerly Known As Prince") has established himself as an important force in pop music. He has also developed a unique, though sometimes almost unreadable, twist on the english language, replacing words and syllables with numbers, contracting words, and generally mucking about with spelling.

We, the perspiring minds at TenVolt, wondered what it would be like to see the web through the eyes (or pen) of Prince. So this utility was born...

Additional Info

The script is based on a highly unscientific review of Prince's web site, CD track listings and liner notes. The script is an ASP page written in VBScript. Basically it goes and gets the page you ask for, goes through it and looks for anything that matches the words in a dictionary. If it finds a match, it replaces it with the designated Prince-speak version. It is not that smart but does try to do a few things like preserve upper-case letters and only make changes that make sense. This script was written by Stephen K. Donnelly in November, 2001. More info or custom versions available upon request.
