After failing to get myself to do gratitude journaling through other means, I got the idea of a simple chatbot.
For me, the 'killer feature' that kept me using it was a daily reminder of a past entry that got me to smile on a pleasant memory.
I thought it might be helpful to more than my friends, family, and me. Feel free to use the same instance I use, or run it on your server.
I know this will not scale, so if many people find it useful, I will rewrite the bot in rails, add a web interface and migrate the data.
P.S. I had not dealt with databases at the time I built this, so please forgive the "DB" I used :)
