Ever talk to a Bot before?  Now's your chance! Add "" to your contact list in Windows Live or MSN Messenger.  The MIX06 bot can tell you about sessions, speakers, schedules at MIX06 (type "sessions Wednesday").  And, when you're ready for some fun, the MIX06 bot can help you find a restaurant, show, or a great local golf course (type " outside activities").  The MIX06 Bot is built using Messenger Bots, Activities, Virtual Earth, and the MSN Spaces blogging API. 

MIX06 is the first time we've created a conference bot (better late than never!).  The bot is very much a work in progress, but we wanted to share it with you… there is a feedback page so you can tell us about your experience using the MIX06 Bot and what you'd like to see future conference bots do.
