What's a Twitter Bot?

Bots are special Twitter users that provide you with information, either by request or whenever it becomes available.

Two Kinds of Bots

Auto-Reply
To use these bots, you must send them a direct message, upon which they will reply with the information requested.

Announcements
Adding these bots as friends will provide you with up-to-date information on a given subject.

Note: All bots require that you add them as your friend prior to using.
