IM (instant messenger) bot
[INCOMPLETE]
A few people have asked about bots for instant messengers and the like. Jabber bots, msn bots, yahoo bots, aol bots etc.
So, I’ve decided to create a page of links and info regarding this story of automatic replys.
There’s a new bot that has been released by mabber.com.
code.mabber.com/t/chatbot – ChatBot (written in Perl)
there’s elmer in php
kalbot in python
laffer
whereskal
edgar
sulci, but that’s in Erlang 🙂
jabbot
active-users.pl == really basic idea
class.jabber.php is the core usually for jabber stuff
laffer.sf.net
New public easy free DIY IM BOT service
- IMified – IMified.com – Free bots for almost anything. And you can create your own ones that they will host/run for you – you don’t need your own IM server.
This would probably be a pay service, but the basic bot will hopefully be free.
If not a totally free bot solution, then i would probably find and contribute to some free/opensource bot.
Aim Bot
Aim have a SDK developer kit you can create your own AIM bots to respond to commands – developer.aim.com/bot.
