We've finally gotten round to integrating our rule based system, XmlMiner, including our rule language, Metarule into Burble, our FaceBook chatbot.
 
Using Burble's rule language we can select key user entries that will trigger a rule set evaluation. The first we created responds to 'I hate Burb ...

Scientio have created a facebook application around their ChatBot, ScientioBot. We've called it Burble. It uses ScientioBot's engine, but we've redesigned it to use profile information in its responses. In keeping with Facebook's privacy rules none of this information is stored in the application. ...

To recap, they are a data structure representation of a piece of text that encodes part of speech and concept information.

Silverlight 2 Beta 2 was released last week, and like Beta 1 it had several breaking changes that affected our products, including the Metarule Editor. 
In this case the web services ceased to work, and the Forms Framework that we use, provided by the excelent Netikatech also failed to work.

I was supposed to attend a conference called EuroDigimeet in Paris yesterday.  I booked some Eurostar tickets several weeks ago.  Sunday night I looked at them and they were the wrong way round - i.e. they assumed I started in Paris!
 
I checked the Eurostar booking website.  The direction of tr ...

One interesting question that I often think about is the application of ideas from data mining / AI to the wider world.  Obviously, for good or ill, data mining has a lot of impact on our lives.
