I have been using you add on my browser for the last several days and it works like a treat. It just like reliving the days of office xp and 20xx versions of word, that's how good it is.

In the past before social media, this feature (the MS Agents / assistants) where ridiculed and made fun of but in today's world where cute stuff like this helps promote mental well-being and a welcome distraction when working in front of a screen for hours before the current generation assistants like siri, sam telling us to look away from the screen or we need to take a break.

Have you considered adding the two other most famous agents, Rocky the dog and Links the cat. If you are able to add these extra agents to the add-on you will probably cover 90% percent of the user base.

I also suspect it will generate a bit of a media buzz and people might even write articles about you and your software raising your profile in the online community. Clippy may have been more of a gag character but it's Rocky and Links is where a lot of the real action is at.

If you can add sound effects like they made in the past now that would really be amazing!! but I don't want to push my luck with that.

Either way thank you for such a enjoyable add-on and experience.

Thanks a lot man for the kind words. There are some plans to promote and expand Clippy in the future but nothing is set in stone as of it yet.

I don't know if you are a developer.. but if you are you and everyone else are welcome to contribute and add features on top of Clippy.

Cheers and have fun with him 😉

I understand you would like other characters but we will see what the future brings. We have a lot of contributors for dictionary so i'll add a link there if someone wants to pick this up. Thank you for the interest 🙂
