This Digital Talking Parrot virtual pet comes in the form of a free Windows screensaver and promises to either a) drive you bonkers or b) drive you bonkers in short order. You can teach the thing to make sounds, and it comes with a selection of different homey backgrounds to add to the effect. The best bit however is probably going to be when you locate the ‘speaker off’ button. Offers to install a toolbar, but you can avoid that if you want.
Digital Talking Parrot though can talk, laugh, sing, mimic bird’s songs, and imitate human sounds thanks to available phrases in this free screensaver. The best (or the “worse”) is that the virtual pet remembers whatever it hears and will say out later. It is really a lovely virtual pet for your PC.
