Aww, isn't that sweet? AOL Instant Messenger made me some new friends. They just appeared on my friends list today. I got lonely and decided I would give my new pal "ShoppingBuddy" a chat.

[me@work]: Hello, new AIM Bot service! I would like to shop smarter.

ShoppingBuddy: Welcome. Now you can search for products with AOLShopping. Type main to get started. To read our privacy policy, type privacy anytime.

[me@work]: Do I have to type one of those or will you respond straight to product requests?

ShoppingBuddy: OK, I'm searching for matches 4 U. Gimme a sec...

ShoppingBuddy:
- Search results for type one respond straight product requests

- Pocket Ski Seat - BLUE Border [$4.95]
(etc)

[me@work]: Actually, that's not what I wanted.

ShoppingBuddy: OK, I'm searching for matches 4 U. Gimme a sec...

ShoppingBuddy:
- Search results for wanted

- WWE : Smackdown vs Raw 2006 [$45.85 - $49.99]
- Star Wars: Battlefront II [$44.00 - $49.99]
- Kingdom Hearts 2 [$42.99 - $54.95]
(etc)

[me@work]: Actually, I would like to find a Turing test.

ShoppingBuddy: OK, I'm searching for matches 4 U. Gimme a sec...

ShoppingBuddy:
- Search results for Turing

- Turing and the Computer [$4.38 - $9.95]
- Turing Machines With Sublogarithm [$28.00]
- Lara Croft by Bryce Turing, Micha [$3.65]
(etc)

[me@work]: Lara Croft? Wow! Thank you!

ShoppingBuddy: Sure, that's what I'm here for!

... So, um, I don't think it passed.
