In the gadget you can type 'register <feedname> <url>' and have the feed registered and started, so its only a one step thing now. I'm sure the gadget its not what you would have created as its just a frontend to the bot commands stuff. > Though developers get the whole command-line thing, most users get visual > interfaces better.

Looking forward to the new API so i can get rid of this as it clutters my logs ;] Much thnx for the feedback Pamela i very much appreciate it as it puts me on the right path, if you have any more comments please let me know. On a last note i want to say that the bot not only works in a wave but also on jabber, just use the register command in a PM with the bot or use the hb-start <feedname> command if the feed already exists.
