README
A simple bot to work with the new [Facebook Messenger API](https://messengerplatform.fb.com/), using [Wit.ai](https://wit.ai).
It right now tells you weather and gives you an inspiring quote. It is still learning.
Try things like "How is the weather in Mumbai?" or "Tell me a management quote?"
Next feature: Generic FB message for stocks!
Next feature2: Reminders!
