Here's a great Idea for a wish (Wishlist)
Here's a great Idea for a wish // WishlistcybernomeNov 3, 1998, 4:32pm
Hello all, The Cybernome here with (at least I believe so...) a great
Idea. And I think it can be done now. Using a bot for interactivity with other users instead of using it as a seperate entity. Now for those of you who dont get what I mean by this..here's an example... Wouldnt it be great is you could use a sort of control applet...for using virtual money, or transfering it between users using the bot as a creditcard interface (instead of a bot using an Av of say butch...it would be invisible but the usage of the bot would be with you where ever you go). So you could say, pay a builder on the spot for helping you with a place you want to make. Just get your "credit bot" to interact with the contractors bot to transfer the credit . Like having a virtual wallet & ATM machine all in one. Or...if your away...you could have your "control interface" ( the bot) in place of you...telling folks that you just ran to go pee or get a sandwhich. It could even work as an answering machine of sorts...having it programmed to TAKE A MESSAGE...From: Me :) ....then it would forward you an email or something to let you know later. I'm am currently working on this..a bot that acts as an AW interface. To make a Bot Appear as you so that you could control things around you also allowing other to see what happening..instead of the "you only see it happen" deals existing now. Bots can control objects and run script...Why not have it your main control. You could even do voice generation that way...Typing to the bot...then the bot generating what you just said...but as you ...not the bot. Alot of the things on the wishlist could possibly be done in this manner. I am also using this same bot for gaming...keeping control of player stats, encounters and database stuff..while playing. For this game I got running called Shadowrun...I'm using this "technology" to track players...and to update a website this information goes to in real time. So players can goto the site as see immediatly what others are doing or to just pull up there bot to see their own progress. Give me some feedback on this..cuz I really think it could work...Let me know your opinions...at cybernome at earthlink.net Also ..interesting in role playing....The Shadowrun 3D game is in beta testing right now..and the site is still under construction...but feel free to check it and even bookmark for later updates on what going on. www.geocities.com/researchtriangle/thinktank/8155 Want to see whats going on so far with the game...Come to Cyberville in Metatropolis... at COFmeta 61n 301e |
