1. A Smarter Child: Instant Messenger Robot Concept
2. Every Product SKU Will Have a Learning SKU
3. Raspyini Brothers Headed to TechLearn
1. A Smarter Child: Instant Messenger Robot Concept. I have been playing
with this intriguing "automated agent/robot" that a TechLearn Trends
reader pointed me to last night. It is called Smarter Child. You can add
this "agent" to your Instant Messenger account or work through a Java
based web interface. In this demo, you can ask questions on a set of
topics and get answers conversationally. I found out stock quotes,
weather, books and movies locally, as well as other info. Imagine having
a series of IM addresses linked to diverse knowledge bases. Go to:

2. Every Product SKU Will Have a Learning SKU: As Customer Learning
grows, we are starting conversations about the creation of Learning
Objects that would match each retail product in a store. Imagine if every
consumer product's bar code (often called a SKU) had a matching Learning
SKU that pointed to a web based learning or knowledge set of modules.
Suppliers would create these Learning SKU's for every item in their
inventory and retailers could compile or personalize them for either
employee or customer training.
3. Raspyini Brothers Headed to TechLearn: The Keynote List is almost
complete for TechLearn 2002. The Raspyini Brothers, one of the
funniest comedy and juggling and magic groups will be opening each of our
General Sessions, tickling us and integrating content from the
presentations into their short openers. Their website: www.raspyini.com
