IM the Encarta Server

I saw this on Chris Sells' blog. What you do is add encarta@conversagent.com to your MSN IM contract list and then you can chat with the Encarta server by asking it questions. The questions are somewhat limiting, however the idea of chatting with a computer is very interesting. Being that you are using an application that is primarily used to communicate with humans, this has an AI feel to it. It is very cool.

Example Questions:

  • What is the population of the earth?
  • Solve x+2=5
