No More TriviaBots
Gone are the days of IRC, actually it is still alive, but I am no longer as active as I was before. And I can remember my active IRC days at around 1997 to 1998, and again in 2000 to 2001. Then I stopped chatting on IRC. But one interesting thing I miss on IRC was the TriviaBots. In IRC, there are many bots that you can use. And a popular one is the TriviaBots.
TriviaBots chat with you automatically, and they do trivia quizzes with everyone in the chat room and each chatter may with by typing in the answer first. Who ever answers first wins for the round and scores are tallied. It was a nice game, while getting to chat with other people getting to know other people, and also a good exercise to learn more about trivial things.
Today I’m out of chatting on IRC. And I barely chat with people I don’t know. And the IMs have replaced all mediums of chatting. And also, I no longer chat with the TriviaBot, and I was always attracted to trivia questions. And since Trivia questions, I like learning more trivia stuff, although the Internet is just to overwhelming with information. And it would be better to just visit a single trivia site. So I just visit a trivia blog from time to time just to get updated. They are pretty popular with a PR of 7 and an Alexa rank of less than 100,000.
