An IRC bot for monitoring the daily free book provided by Packt. Type '!packt' and the bot will say the current free book's title.
I mostly wrote this to get practice using Go. No warranty is expressed or implied.
go get github.com/muraiki/packtbot
go build github.com/muraiki/packtbot
go install github.com/muraiki/packtbot
Create a packtbot.yaml (see sample in this repo) and configure the bot's name, the channel it will join, and the server it will join. To use a secure server, use field secureserver instead of server.
Once you have a packtbot.yaml, run packtbot from the same directory.

Do whatever you want with this. Just don't be mean. :)
