Teletext Bot — Teletext on Facebook Messenger

@__tosh thx for hunting this super awesome retro bot =)

@__tosh Personally i don't use it because i barely know people who use Facebook, not to mention that i don't have it myself. IMO the API is not bad, not as clean and polished as Telegram tho. I dont know what the burger menu is, but the inline options are something i also really enjoyed with Telegram (who make them also a little more flexible afaik) Btw, cool project. I was surprised to find a ORF logo on PH ;)

@__tosh IMO In Facebook Messenger the payload handling is easier because you can set an JSON String as payload with more properties then just the button text like in Kik & Telegram. You need less state handling with JSON payloads.

@__tosh yes you can hook up the other 3 ORF teletexts: But its not on the roadmap at the moment.

@phips28 what about BBC, ARD etc etc?

@__tosh BBC Teletext (Ceefax) ended on 23 October 2012 and ARD (http://www.ard-text.de/mobil/100) Teletext is not yet compatible with the current implementation but will be in the future. ;)

@__tosh I know Teletext in the UK shutdown all but it's holday service, but I wonder if a bot like this would be enough to justify a relaunch, or of the German service could be translated.

@martinmucha thx 😊

@lxpinta The idea came at our first BotsHackathon in vienna with input from @__tosh 😉
