SimSimi

So my GF secretly downloaded a new app on my iPhone. I'm that guy that doesn't use my phone for it's apps. No. I only use my phone for three (3) things.

1. Texting
2. Calling
3. Music (iPod)

So as you could tell, I'm not that guy who really pays attention to applications in my iPhone.
Because of this, I almost forgot my password at the App Store. Good thing I remembered just in time before my GF restarted the damn thing. So she downloaded something. When I first asked what she was downloading, I didn't hear it for the first time. But it sounded like "Sims" or something. So I thought it was the traditional Sims Game that she was downloading. I really didn't pay attention to it and continued on and took a bath. After my bath, I dressed-up for school and that's the time the download finished. Sadly, we didn't have the time to try it on the count of we have to leave for school at that time. So it waited until later that night.

I asked her about it in the car:

"Ano ba yung dinownload mo kanina?" (What did you download anyway?)
"SimSimi nga!" (I told you! It's SimSimi!)
"Ano yun?" (What's that?) <- Yes, I'm really that guy that doesn't give a f**k about apps in my iPhone
"Parang chat siya na computer yung kausap mo." (It's like chat, but a computer is the one's chatting with you.)
"Ha? Parang CleverBot?" (What? Like CleverBot?)
"Oo." (Yes.)

Actual conversation after I got home that night and got some internet connection.

It all made sense to me know. I lot of these pics are trending on facebook, twitter, tumbler, and all other sites in the vastness of the internet!

It's turning into some kind of a craze among people nowadays. I could say, it's pretty impressive. You could talk to it, teach it new "replies", and share to your friends how wacky was your conversation with it. It's really fun sometimes; all those random replies that the bot was saying. It'll make you LULZ, but sometimes, it could get into your nerves. This is because some a-holes taught this thing some idiotic and stupid replies. But that's just when you provoke the thing. Just speak to it nicely for it to reply to you nicely. But talk dirty to it, then it will be a trash-talk battle between a human and a computer.

Overall, it's quite impressive. Got me talking to the damn thing before bedtime. Whenever it says something that made me LULZ, I would take a screenshot of the conversation ('Cause the "Share" feature is not yet operational) and post in on facebook. Sadly, I'm too tired lately to speak to it. But maybe after my finals week, I could spend some time with SimSimi.

You can download this app for free in the Apple App Store: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/simsimi/id375239755?mt=8

Download it. Spend some time with it. And post some of your silly conversations with it. Share it here
and with your friends!
