Neat. I love the idea of procedurally created things, because they can come up with content you may never have thought of or just provide a feeling of 'randomness' within limits. I'm a big fan of controlled chaos, and procedurally generated stuff fits in so snuggly with that.

Cool find. 

i've wanted to make a game with proceduraly generated worlds for a while. Partly because it's a cool artistic/programming blend, and partly because 1-man teams can't rely on lots of content creation. 

As game worlds require increasingly more content, teams using procedural generation can (arguably) always be smaller than teams that do everything "b hand" as it were.

I'm curious, where is the boundary between procedural generation and just really good tools? 

 

that's what i was going to say -- the ideal tools from an efficiency standpoint are probably using some procedural generation layered on top of designed content.
