Web Bot - What is it? Can it predict things?

I recently saw an episode of decoding the past on the History channel. And it had some references to some web bot project,in which some computer program can predict the future,mainly stocks and such..Supposedly it predicted a few things that were dead on.It also had some references to 2012 as well.

The web bot project was designed in the late 1990's - originally to predict the stock market trends. For those of you who do not know, the web bot technology uses a system of spiders to crawl the Internet and search for keywords, much like a search engine does. When a keyword is located, the bot program takes a snapshot of the text preceding and following the keyword. This snapshot of text is sent to a central location where it is then filtered to define meaning.

The folks operating the web bot program have a wonderful sense of humor with regards to what it is that they do. The are incredibly open minded, and have also made the wise choice to keep the government from obtaining the technology. For the most part, they refuse media interviews as well and prefer to keep the project to a low roar.
