Jukebox Automation



You send a text message from your mobile phone to your POP email account.
Your text message should contain the keywords of a song title (and possibly
an artist name) that you want to hear. DittyBot finds that email (he checks
Mail every 45 seconds) and copies the song name into a text file. The song
name is then copied into iTunes and a playlist is created from your search.
Next, DittyBot loads Skype (the internet telephony app) and begins calling
your mobile phone. Your mobile phone rings and when you pick it up, you
should hear your song start playing in all its compressed glory.
