You have a good point, the title could be slightly misleading due to you being able to build bots on top of the blockchain, I will make an adjustment to the title.

You're right though, this bot could be easily adjusted to understand those question those questions related to users or the prices of steem through integrating with the steem API/a currency API (I haven't looked at docs but assume it's all available due to the apps being built on it). I only really wanted to give an introduction to bots in this post because as soon as you start mentioning code some users will lose interest and thought it would still be useful. My hope is that I can do more and more and show people how to build more advanced bots :)
