"Okay this is better. Maybe I'll switch the comments on my blog over to Disqus. Using CoComment atm. Although I haven't really been blogging. I blame the Microblogging services, among other things, for distracting me. :-)" - Joanmarie
"The IM bot should recognize 'help' all by itself as a command rather than a single word update to all of the default services. :-) The reason I tried 'help' was because I was on my sidekick and couldn't remember the name of one of my custom triggers. Rather than go to the web (slow on the sidekick), I figured an im bot would surely recognize 'help' as a command and respond with some other keywords I could use. Oops. On the bright side, I'm now getting replies with Beatles' lyrics. ;-)" - Joanmarie
Heh. I was walking away from the computers for a bit and was using the ping.fm im bot from my sidekick. I couldn't remember what I called one of my custom triggers, so I figured I'd ask the bot. Surely it would tell me. Oops. Now about 6 services know I'm an idiot. :-) - Joanmarie via NoiseRiver

“note to self: ping.fm bot doesn't recognize 'help' as a command. It should.”
Yup, that should do nicely at least for now. Now that ping.fm supports friendfeed, I don't want to spam folks with duplicate postings (friendfeed and twitter). But I don't want to remove twitter from friendfeed either. What would be nice is if friendfeed had an automated dup remover/hider. - Joanmarie
