Lovely!

I actually did something similar..

Last year, I started looking at algorithms to count syllables. It turns out that hyphenation and syllable detection have a lot in common.

Anyway, long story short: one of the approaches I use on Haikuist is a hyphenation algorithm.

I'm glad you built softhyphen.com. It's such a fun idea.
