Looking for a novel way to promote their 2001 record "Amnesiac," Radiohead began working with ActiveBuddy, the people behind the popular SmarterChild chatbot, to create GooglyMinotaur, their own AOL chatbot based on a character from the album.
The band was already technologically innovative, both in its music and its marketing: In 2000, they released a full, free online stream of its album "Kid A" before its official release date, a move that was nearly unheard of in the industry at the time.
