Adding Bots To Google Wave

So I've been testing out Google Wave for a small while now.
Really could use some more people I know in it. Ideally members of my mod team.
Anyway, I digress slightly.
For those who may stumble across this via search, here's a quick tip on how to add Bots to your Google Wave account:
Simply add the bots address to your contact list.
Then you start a wave with it, like you would with another friend.
The data interaction is done via the wave, so if you add the RSSYBot for example, simply add the bots address to your contacts: rssybot@appspot.com
Start a wave and in that wave add the url of the RSS feed you want to read.
Updates on that feed will arrive in your inbox.

Hope that helps.
