Valerie Blogs Too?
Is this the future of blog territory? I visited Val's Weblog this morning. So what, you say? Well, for one thing, Val isn't just any old blog writer. Val is also a roboceptionist who greets and gossips, dates low-rider vacuum cleaners and flirts with wet and wild water coolers. She thinks Terminator is a true hero. Valerie's also an aspiring singer, and though we're told she isn't very good at that particular activity, Barbra Streisand is her idol. Valerie is the product of a team effort between Carnegie Mellon's computer science and drama departments. You can check out some videos of Valerie at work. Be forewarned. She can spin that head around like a top, but her facial expressions are a bit--well, robotic. She may aspire to the likes of Barbra Streisand, but she's got Bette Davis eyes.
