Kuriosus is a project mainly written in PYTHON and SHELL, it's free.

XMPP bot to manage your reading list

Kuriosus

You probably read a lot of documents online (articles, pdfs, blog posts, etc) every day, just like me. Kuriosus helps to remember those interesting ones and keep track of a "To Read" list, right there in your g-talk.

Kuriosus works as a g-talk bot, just add the contact and start talking to it.

Example:

me: help
... show available commands ...

me: read http://igorsobreira.com/blog/2011/2/6/adding-methods-dynamically-in-python/ Adding methods dynamically in python

me: read
    ... show all your read documents from today ...

me: read yesterday
    ... show all your read documents from yesterday ...

me: toread http://igorsobreira.com/blog/2011/2/6/adding-methods-dynamically-in-python/

me: unread http://igorsobreira.com/blog/2011/2/6/adding-methods-dynamically-in-python/

Kuriosus in under development. At the moment you can run it yourself, soon I'll provide a public g-talk contact that you can add.
