You can have separate modules for factoid tracking, ‘seen’ status, karma, googling, etc. Included default modules are:

Auth - user authentication and main access. DNS - host lookup (e.g. nslookup and dns). Google - search Google for things. Infobot - handles infobot-style factoids. Join - joins and leaves channels. Karma - tracks the popularity of things. Loader - loads and unloads modules as bot commands. Seen - tells you when people were last seen. Title - gets the title of URLs mentioned in channel. Vars - changes module variables.
