Campfire perl bot hack
Posted on Feb 9, 2006
So i was playing around with campfire and i noticed that i could easy write a bot for it. so i did. it sucks. but it shows what you could do. how i love www mechanize. and perl. check it out:

Oh yea. campfire is sweet. the 37signals guys did a great job. although i am a bit worried about how you can spoof the message post url in a tinurl and make anyone who clicks on it say whatever you want them to say ;) but that is naturally a weakness in a webchat.. especially with ajax.
here is the speak url;
/room/44/speak?message=message+here
if someone goes to that while in room 44 they will say “message here”
heh.
