Furby toy Guide, Meaning , Facts, Information and Description

A Furby is an electronic soft-toy made by Tiger Electronics which went through a brief period of being a "must-have" toy following its launch in 1998, selling for hundreds of dollars.

The main hook was their apparent "intelligence" and learning ability as they developed their language skills and repeated words said around them (which lead to several intelligence agencies banning them from their offices). They can also communicate with one another via an infrared port. Furbys start out speaking entirely in Furbish, a language with short words, simple syllables and few phonemes, but are programmed to speak less and less Furbish and more and more English the more they "grow".

In appearance, the furby is a cross between a mouse, a cat, and a bat or owl.

They are still popular with many hackers as they can be dissected and made to do interesting things.
