Bullfighter: Eliminate lame business jargon in Word

by Jordan Running on March 16, 2006 at 01:15 PM

Street Tech used to have a "BS Saturation Detector" which would tell you how saturated with meaningless buzzwords and jargon your press release was. The BS Detector is long gone, but now there's Bullfighter, an add-on for Microsoft Office that performs a similar task. It "works with Microsoft Word and PowerPoint to help you find and eliminate jargon in your documents," meaning it checks your documents against a database of lame business-speak and calculates its "Bull Composite Index." Bullfighter is freeware, but only available for Windows.
