Chat with a Werner Herzog bot on Facebook

This is the first thing WernerBot -- a whimsical Facebook message bot that claims to be the "best and only way to chat with Werner Herzog over the Internet" -- will say to you when first engage it with a simple greeting, "Hello Werner."

WernerBot is not affiliated with the famed director, but it responds in a way that one can't help hearing Herzog's excited voice.

Write a response about any book you're reading (or about anything in general) and WernerBot will answer with, "Stop looking at this Face Book and read a real book."

Of course, you could be reading Shakespeare or the latest James Patterson mystery novel and it won't matter to WernerBot because it already has a couple of book suggestions at the ready.
