Gender Genie
I had always been wondering about the gender of certain bloggers with strange, whacky blog ids. Kudos to Gender Genie tool, it uses a computer algorithm to findout gender of the author. Just copy & paste a section of text from the blog (or author's article, story etc) and hit "submit", voila! the Genie finds out the gender and so far with all the my tries, the result has been close to 90%, 9 in 10 blogs, and that too missing very marginally (will not disclose the identity of the post which failed ;-) ).
