Interact with the Volvo BOT!

Why should I add the Volvo BOT to my Messenger Contact List? Volvo BOT is a smart computer that you can chat with about all kinds of things. Volvo BOT is polite, and sometimes quite charming. And unlike most of your friends and coworkers, Volvo BOT is available to chat with you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Here's an interesting conversation I just had with the Volvo BOT...

They oughta change the name of that thing slightly, Volvo Ad BOT seems a little more appropriate. Poor conversationalist too.

Very poor. I'll never get that five minutes back. I kept him in my IM list though just in case he decides to contact me. ;o)
