Say Goodnight

Wrote another wave robot, this are strangely addicting to write. Its weird because at this level Wave is really just a glorified IRC chatroom. They have been doing bots in rooms for decades. But I don’t know, something is really cool about going back to the purity of that model, while using future-looking technology like Wave. I am on board 100%.

Anyway, FEZZIKYBOT!

I did a search and found this cool service that Aza Raskin made. It is a simple RESTful service (he even included JSONP!) that takes a term and returns JSON output of words that it rhymes with! Super simple! So I hooked into that service from my Fezzikybot. The bot will attempt to rhyme the last word of the previous sentences blip. It chooses a random rhyme, ignores punctutation, and then puts it in a randomly chosen canned response.

Silly. Simple. Dumb. INCREDIBLY entertaining.

If you wanna play with Fezziky, just add him to your wave:
