About a week ago i released my MSN bot accessing a “bus oracle” set up by the bus company in Trondheim. It’s a service that lets you ask bus schedule questions using “natural language”. Tonight the bot got its user number 200! The cool thing is that i told 15 people about the bot and then the rumour started spreading! Wonder how long it will take to get 500 users..?

I’m currently working on a few updates, one of them being user specific variables. Like, “home”, “school”, “girl friend” etc, which will allow the users to ask questions like; “when does the next bus from home to school leave?”.
