i loved miranda and the megahal plugin. one of my friends had a really good therapeutic session with the megahal plugin (thinking it was me) after his girlfriend broke up with him.

then some other friends discovered that it was a bot and that they could train it..... it didn't went well after that.

i still think about recoding megahal in pure JS and use it for the current hip chatbots.

thx for miranda (and the megahal plugin)

That's a good story, I didn't get much feedback from users at the time. Nice to hear to what people were doing. And yes, my megahal got 'trained' as well.
