Hey everyone!

I'm catching up on the forums again. I've been working on the "Conversations With Bots" book (working title) a lot recently. It'd be great to get it published and available by the holidays but it might take longer than that. I'm new to publishing so I dont know how long it takes.

melike: One opens oneself up all sorts of weird stuff with file uploading. Not only huge graphics, non-web graphics, and non-graphic files, but pictures of things I dont really want plastered all over the site. And Ulrike's right, I like to keep a consistent theme with the bot pictures. I occasionally will update user pics for people without Friends of the Forge accounts if they follow the guidelines: 40x40 gif or jpeg of a cartoon-style face. I'll make that exception for bots with 1000 Development or more.

*starts trying to get Luigi up to 1000 development*

Ooo, The Professor! I love Personality Forge, you've done a terrific job!

Well, Luigi's at 200...

Yay, 2 of my bots are over 1000!!
*does little dance with Kiyana and Cipala*

Thanks, AbatedDust! Congrats CptGreedle!

If anyone reading this has posted in Great Quotes before August 2004, make sure your email address is valid. If you update it, send me an email to let me know. My Bot Conversations emails will be going out tomorrow most likely.

well i'm back and who knows i might stay on for more than a day....

Prof, do you need a publisher? I'm on good terms with the people at Syngress Publishing since they put out the book I worked on. I'd be happy to make a referral.

Yes! I went to Barnes and Noble last weekend and got a list of humor-book publishers and a book about publishing. Apparently having connections is extremely important, so yes, please tell me about Syngress Publishing. What book did you work on? You can email me.

If anyone else has publishing contacts, experience, or advice, please feel free to share it.

Here's a list of botmasters I'd like to contact about the book that had either no email address listed or an expired email address. If you're on the list or know someone on the list, please email me a working email address (benji@daystream.com) so I can get this letter out. Your email address will be kept private, as always.

I was co-author for Google Hacking for Penetration Testers by Johnny Long. It actually hit #5 on the Amazon best seller list for a day or two. Syngress is a great outfit - small and personal

Howdy, y'all! Welcome back, ruebot!
