This is so cool I have to share. My friend Jeff, who is by all accounts, way geekier than I sent me an email contact for MSN's encarta conversation agent. You add this contact to your MSN list and then ask it questions like you would a normal person and it responds with the information you requested. When you ask it questions it gives you a short synopsis for you to verify that is the actual information you requested, then asks you to accept an invitation. The invitation opens a separate window on your PC that displays text and pictures (as well as an banner ad or two). Man thats slick! To use this service add "encarta@conversagent.com" to your MSN contact list. |
