Thanks chaps. I got in the zone yesterday and just resolved to finish the English ones. I think this thread must get some views as today there were a huge amount of hits on the collection.

I also want to add images to the movies, over 700 of them and trailers too if they can be found on Youtube

I spent a little time updating the Chatterbot Collection site while I was in web design mode.

Just a few cosmetic changes and I've added the Disqus platform to allow comments over there.

I also updated the gallery to use the Masonry JS script, so that works better now.

Check it out : http://www.chatterbotcollection.com/

Edit : I just added a Keywords list page for those items I have been tagging : http://www.chatterbotcollection.com/keywords.php

Some more tinkering - it's addictive I tell you.

I've been working on a glossary system for the CBC, so that terms and people are picked out with a short definition. They all link to Wikipedia too for further info.

The words are underlined and hovering over them should tell you about the term, person or thing of interest. Clicking on them takes you to the Wiki.

Couple of examples :

Julia - Loebner and Turing.

Avengers: Age of Ultron - had to get Tony Stark in there !

So that's another job to keep me busy

And the work goes on. Now every article has an opening quote and all have been dated.

It was interesting going through all the articles, some date back to the 90s and even one from 1984 (taken from a magazine). You can see how the web evolved from tiny images and economical page design due to everyone being on dial up. Then as time goes on graphics and images started to get bigger and better, and page design started to become more adventurous.

I'm going to add as many trailers or video clips as I can going forward. Getting too hot to think here now

Back in 2018 the Chatterbot Collection had 6,396,502 hits

I did a bit of a clean up today to check all the links work and mark things lost where applicable.

Here are the new graphs for today. Over 10 million hits now and very close to 11 million.

Hi folks

Just a quick update: after a long hiatus, I have done some work on the Chatterbot Collection again. I've tidied things up, streamlined what I have, and optimised speed.

I have removed Disqus from the site as it wasn't really adding anything useful and was not being used much. I feel I have improved the appearance of the gallery.

I've added a few new items and will add more as time permits.

Cheers!

Great work Freddy. My list of movies to watch, has just suddenly increased! 

[Freddy]

It may grow more because I have to catch up on over a year's worth of movies
