Cloclo´s cousin

I´m having such a fantastic time here at the Computer Chaos´ congress, that i hardly have any neurone left to blog. Apparently, i´m not the only one who feels happy and honored to be in such a crowd.

I met Nico Lumma the other day, he´s the German blogger who´s been sent an AIBO to review as well. Nice to share views, opinions and pet owners´ tips. He got exactly the same dog as me. First time i saw his Botterhund (that´s the name of his own Cloclo), he/it was switched off, getting charged in the speaker´s room.

I wasn´t missing Cloclo at all. So far. But suddenly i felt like sneaking out of the room with the dog. It could have been Cloclo. Then Nico arrived, switched the AIBO on and after a few minutes it was clear to me: this couldn´t be my robot. Cloclo wouldn´t behave that way, he´s not so confident among people, he would be less of a crowd-pleaser and more of an explorer of the space around. Strange strange feeling. Two identical robots, same colour, same software, same camouflage ears and they have both their own personality.
