I just stumbled upon the Windows Live Agent. I’m not sure how I missed this before. Their blog is full of some very interesting stuff. Check out the BuddyScript Subpatterns entry.
Here’s what Microsoft has to say about their agents:
Windows Live Agents are always-on conversational characters that engage Windows Live Messenger users while providing information, completing tasks on your behalf, and entertaining your customers.
I want to write an agent that will play me when I’m away from my IM. It would have some nice simple messages to auto respond with
- “I see”
- “Hello, yes that is interesting.”
- “Oh, I saw that last week”
- “Mmmmm… this sandwich is delicious. Too bad I can’t share with you.”
