Not really a confession — more like a Turing test

Robot!I’m NOT a bot. And today, I had to convince a Meebo chatter of my membership in the Homo Sapiens club.

[10:29] bubbo100: hello/
[10:29] abenamer: you again?
[10:29] abenamer: hehe
[10:30] bubbo100: yes- sorry to bug u! I’m trying to figure out if you have a method of getting a meebome window to talk to a bot
[10:30] abenamer: meebo hasn’t published an API for that sort of thing
[10:30] abenamer: the only other way would be to figure out a XSS attack on Meebo istself
[10:31] bubbo100: OK- thought not but your confesssion thing sounded like it might be a bot! I believe now you are a person!
[10:31] abenamer: I’m glad to know I have been recognized as a person
[10:32] bubbo100: thx- take care

I’ve passed the Turing Test!!!

The picture of the robot was from Flickr by a user named drp.
