Anyone know how this site is done? I can't imagine it being live, plus it seems like it's playing clips. But it seems to do everything you ask. Try it.

Duh! Obviously it's not live :rolleyes: But still, it's pretty cool.

Thats brilliant, how in heck is it done? Its gotta be 'live'.

Well, one reason it can't be live (apart from the clipping) is that I could tell him to run and you could tell him to hop but I only see what I tell him to do.

There are about 350 or so different clips. Each clip has a load of keywords associated with it. It even does naughty things.

Large list here: http://www.xeni.net/images/bb/clipData.html

Ah! Well there you go. Thanks for taking the mystique away from it

I told him to eat a sandwich and he just stood there like I was talking frickin Japanese. He's a spanner !

you have to give the person who came up with the idea some credit, i saw two guys asking the chicken questions last saturday in work, the chicken seems to be on a bit of a time delay, so when one guy asked the chicken to do something and the other was doing nothing, about 10 seconds later he did what was asked by guy 1 on guy 2s screen.
