WootAgent AIMBOT (BETA) debut!

April 26th, 2007

Hooray! We’ve decided to release the wootAgent AIMBOT to allow all users to test it during this Woot-Off.

If you use AOL Instant Messenger then send an IM to: WootAgentBot

Once you message the bot, it will immediately message you back with the current item, price, and a link to the item. Type: help for more options and you can subscribe to messages from the WootAgent bot. If you want to subscribe, type: add and you will be added to the bots list and every time a new item appears you will be instantly notified. During Woot-Off mode, you will receive an IM every time the ‘percentage sold out’ changes.

If you want to be removed from the list, type: remove and you will be notified that you have been removed.

Leave comments on your thoughts for this new feature.

How can WootAgent help you?

April 11th, 2007

Just in case, and this is a long shot, WootAgent doesn’t have quite everything you need to stay up to the second on the items thrown up on Woot, we’ve been trying our hand at devising other systems to help you out.

WootAgent’s AIM Bot
This is a great service for those who prefer an instant message notification for their new woots. It’s all text-based, showing the product name, price, and a link to purchase the item.

The AIM Bot will message you only when there is a new item and then every 6 hours afterwards– for those of you who arne’t AIM-a-holics like ourselves and might (possibly) be logged off while an announcement is broadcast.

ETA: 7 Days with a 87.5% confidence interval

Text-Message Alerts
Due to popular demand (yes, people had the cajones to ask even MORE of us) we’ve bought another slave or two to produce an SMS system for users to subscribe to. We know some of you are almot literally in love with your cell phones, and we’re here to bring that bond to a whole new level. Receive your woot updates from anywhere in the globe!

ETA: 7 Day, give or take a day.
