Tootfinder

As some of you know, the first digital interactive fiction I created was a bot. That was in 2002.
I was just going through some old pages on my website and found an article I wrote for the (unfortunately no-longer online) site that Mark Marino, Jeremy Douglass and I ran in the early 2000s: Writer Response Theory.
Anyway, I found this piece I had copied for some reason and thought I would share it. It's on another historical angle people explored bots through. :)
