Building an IM Bot Using ColdFusion
I recently brought a Google Talk bot that I put online at cfdocs@gmail.com. Google Talk users can add this user to their buddy list and then submit CFML tag and function lookups to it. (I've also brought Yahoo IM and AIM versions online as nickname cflivedocs, but more on those shortly). In this column I'll explain exactly what the IM bot is and what it does, and show you how to easily create a bot of your own.

Got it working - remember to remove the pound sign from in front of each of the options! I assumed that if they said there was a "default" version that you didn't need to specify the parameters. Wrong!

This was written in 2005. Here it is 2008 and I'm trying to apply this using Cold Fusion 2008 Enterprise, but I can't get the instance to start. The log files are basically saying that talk.google.com won't let me connect. Is there now a different IP I should connect to, or did Google shut down this "portal"?

Where can i download this bot? Thanks.

This is an awesome overview - Thanks for taking the time to supply this great info, Ben!
