Been experimenting with Linux software recently. I finally switched from the (somewhat unstable and slightly crappy)ICQ/AIM client I was using to GAIM. Sounds like it only does AIM-ish operations, right? Well, it has these plugins, see .. and there are plugins for everything. Comes with plugins for ICQ (or course) and Jabber and (this one surprised me) Zephyr, which we use at work. If only I could get GTK+ compiled at work. . . heh.

And there’s an ALICE Bot plugin … it’s an interesting chatterbot program, kind of like Eliza (or Dr. Sbaitso for anyone who had an old Sound Blaster). But more intelligent. It talks about movies and people and stuff … ask it about William Shatner! haha!
So anyway, I have this bot running and online… weeeee
ICQ: 11344079
