As QQ*librarian pointed out, even storytelling is not as simple as it seems! &lt;br /&gt;By the way, I&amp;#39;m helping a friend promote a contest, where you can win a years supply of Movie Tickets. It is pretty simple, so might like to give it a try!

It would be interesting to see a robot handle spontaneity.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3580266117762444595/5208918180737818138/comments/default/53762925499958675'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3580266117762444595/5208918180737818138/comments/default/53762925499958675'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.aarontanlive.com/2009/06/japan-unveils-storytelling-robot.html?showComment=1246332996637#c53762925499958675' title=''/><author><name>QQ*librarian</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03948325834783761013</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.aarontanlive.com/2009/06/japan-unveils-storytelling-robot.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3580266117762444595.post-5208918180737818138' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3580266117762444595/posts/default/5208918180737818138' type='text/html'/></entry></feed>
