Well I am getting there on the Chatterbot Collection redesign.  I had a break for while, but yesterday I did quite a lot.

The Amazon part is working alright, it's finding books and DVDs on Amazon although there are the occasional odd products returned.  To be expected I suppose as I am searching by titles.  So there may be a few fitness videos pop up    It's something to live with given the limitations of the Amazon API.  I also have to be economical with how much I use the API, so that's another limiting factor.

I don't expect it to make much, but it will be handy for site costs and such.  And as Amazon really does seem to be the place to pick up bargains I think it might prove useful.

Just added a gallery to the collection : http://www.chatterbotcollection.com/gallery.php

It pulls 20 random images.

That’s neat, I like it

That looks great, Freddy!

However, I must report some bad news. It seems that the link to Morti points to the main page of my site, rather than his page. The proper URL is:

http://www.geekcavecreations.com/Morti/

[Freddy]

Thanks to you both

I fixed the link Dave, it should take you to Morti now 

[DaveMorton]

You're my Hero, Freddy!

I'm lucky. My first random page displayed this girl:

Then I watched the movie. I remember her.

Three years after, always a dream...

We should have her on our desktops by now lol - no I imagine it will still take a while.

I've been working on the collection today actually and keep discovering stuff I had never heard of before.  I've added a lot of new images that should appear in the gallery.

I thought this was pretty cool : Lifemode Interactive

I spent a couple of days working on the back end of the site, making myself tools so I could more rapidly update the records. So I can breeze through tasks like adding missing images and descriptions.  Only about 950 English chatbots left to update ! Not to mention the other stuff.

I found a lot of dead links too, so I hope I can whip it into shape over the coming weeks.

Those Lifemode characters seem to be much better regarding realism than say the older
Haptek characters. Their lipsync seemed to work much better as well.

Wonder if Robert has seen or entertained using them for UltraHal?

Good find Freddy!

and the early worm learned too late not to be early.

Yeah...kind of like "The second mouse gets the cheese!"

Wonder if Robert has seen or entertained using them for UltraHal?

I dropped the link in over on Zabaware

I'm a bodyguy, but I know people who just like heads.  They do look good.

Only 800 more English bots to go through

Few odd things added today..
