Culture Cow

Hubot configuration for Khan Academy's Culture Cow

What it means to be Culture Cow

1. Culture Cow provides a steady drip of Khan Academy culture, straight into HipChat's veins.

2. If at any point Culture Cow acts like an annoying robot by decreasing the signal:noise ratio in our HipChat rooms, it will be turned into delicious hamburgers.

Can I add more culture magic?

Absolutely. Modify scripts/culture.js (or whatever else you want). Just abide by the two rules of Culture Cow above. And sorry it's JS and not all cool'n'CoffeeScripty.

Setup instructions

0. Culture Cow gets installed and setup automatically by KA's aws-config/internal-webserver/setup.sh, but if you're doing this manually...
