Invasion of the robots competition by Yousef on 05-15-2006 at 05:53 PM

Today, Microsoft launched a new competition: Robot Invaders. This is of course the follow-up to the 'World's Best App' competition. As you probably already figured, developers are now challenged to create exciting new 'Bots' for Messenger, instead of activities. From the official website:

quote:
Microsoft is challenging developers worldwide to create conversational robots, or BOTs, for MSN Messenger and Windows Live Messenger. The most original, useful robots collect $40,000 in total prizes.
So if you think you're able to create a unique robot for Messenger, give it a shot and you might win a kick-ass $10.000 Alienware workstation!
