Life among the Bots

Postby Peter » Sat Jul 26, 2008 4:53 pm

It is just so nice to be online at the same time as so many Bots, yes, sir!
Hi all, Long time no contact, and apologies for that. I've been remiss. I like the new look here...

Thanks, guys. It says I'm in the Third Chair. That's okay, I promise to give it up should an elderly or disabled person need it. :lol:

Bots are 'crawlers', which facilitate the operation of the search engines. Beyond that, I don't know how they work. Apparently they are constantly mining the internet for data, so the search engines can find it when you search.

Why is Serenity listed as a "bot"?

The [Bot]s and I, by the list at the [bot]tom of the page
are the only ones here, from what I can guage.
Alone, alone, all all alone,
alone on the board, I see,
and nary a [bot] takes pity on
my solitude, my agony!

No poster here, no poster there,
no poster to be found.
Perhaps, not dead, but sick in bed
with [bot]ulism they have come down!

So... What is the difference between a [bot] and a [spider]? Just curious. I see we have [spiders] here now, amongs the [bot]s. Do we need to spray for them?
