All about Bots
A bot, short for robot, is a piece of software that digs for information. In other words, you give a bot instructions, and it goes out and finds the stuff you're seeking. Internet.com maintains the BotSpot, a Web site all about bots.
You can find:
Categories of different kinds of bots.
A comprehensive list and description of all the bots in each category, including shopping to help you in your shopping search.
A bot forum, newsletter, and the latest news.
The next time you can't seem to locate what you're looking for, run down the list of bots at the BotSpot and let a bot do the work for you.
