First, we WILL have Google indexing the archives. We haven’t turned this on
yet, but it will happen.

However, while Google is a good WEB PAGE search engine, it is NOT a very
good full-text search engine. For example, Google’s page rank is based on
how many other web pages point to the page. I don’t think this is relevant
for the NTDEV/NTFSD archives.

TRY the search engine we’re using by searching the the list FROM THE
HOMEPAGE at www.osronline.com. If you still think Google is better, I’d
love to know what we’re missing.
