The project is an experiment in changing the use of electronic toys into data communications nodes by connecting two Furbys to a computer each and then pass data between them. It looks at adaptivity from two different viewpoints. Firstly, the obvious change in the use of the toy from a play thing into a DCE and secondly, the users having to adapt their use of language when using chat software with a Furby acting as an intermediary. - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xp5QRT80jsE

Oh I remember the Furby! I never had one, I had those other things, 'Ooglies' or whatever. I'm happy to see these old things are still useful! And what a great idea too! Will have to look into this further with your link some time.
