Update.

Testing has gone well and this Telegram bot app is working well.

But for now, it looks like few people are using Telegram and not really interested to install Telegram to play computer trivia, at least so far.

If you have not tried it out yet, it is really a great way to kill time when you are stuck in the taxi or waiting in line Smilie

Works well.... and is fun, really!
