What's up with wet hops?

I just received the AHS newsletter saying they'll have wet hops soon. What does one do with wet hops?

The hops are fresh harvested, so they arent dried, you use them in your beer to give it a really bright fresh flavor, I have had a couple pints while out in Cali, it was pretty damn good, I recall some fresh grassy notes in it.

If you are going to give them a try, I would use them for late hop additions, using them for bittering is just wasting the magic that is fresh hops.

And you need a lot more of them by weight, since they arent dried instead of 1 oz you may need 6 or 8 oz of the wet.
