This morning the BBC has a video story about a new Chinese robot that speaks and responds to requests in Mandarin! (And sichuan dialect) I am naturally very excited about the idea of a Chinese speaking robot!
To make it even greater she's been designed to act either as a receptionist or as a museum tour guide! Unfortunatly it's only a video story so I can't post a link to it here, but the reuters story it came from can be found here with the video

And you all thought the only interesting thing about today was not being able to fly with a book!
