The Exponential Spin System Using Linez

Here's a technique to get a lot more boom from your spinning efforts.

Text Directions:

You need:

✓ Linez open and running

✓ Text editor

✓ Google Sets (or other list research resource)

This is really more of a training/theoretical demo, but it does show a very powerful concept that's very easy and increases your combinations immensely, using a little brain power instead of elbow grease.

✓ Go to google sets.
http://labs.google.com/sets

✓ Enter some suggestions to get it started. Let's look for people and enter:
brother
uncle
friend

✓ Click "large set"

✓ Copy/Paste into Linez

✓ Remove things that don't match

✓ suffix each with a pipe |

✓ Join lines

✓ Prefix with {

✓ Suffix with }

You now have a bunch of people in spin syntax.

Now let's multiply those same keywords:

"undo" in Linez until you get to:
friend|
cousin|

Find:
|

Replace|
's|

Shuffle the lines so they are in a different order.

Remove a couple so there's a different number than our first set. This gives us less chance of repetition.

Look at how many combos you now have...If you have 15 words for people, they now make 225 combos. 20 words are 400 combos.

See how it's exponetial?

What if you did something like:

My {friend's} {cousin} drove a {red} {chevy} from {Colorado} to {Nevada}.

Because we used states twice, we get a huge multiplier affect. Instead of adding 50 combos, we get 50 x 50 = 2500 different combos. Sure, some will be "from colorado to colorado", but that'll leave 2400+ that are OK...And we're talking theory to show that "multiplying" keywords gives tons and tons of combos.
