Find some way for this so the tool starts appearing in results when people do google searches for CF names and related info.

Some initial refs:

I chased down the refs further and concluded that there is a good chance Google will parse this site just fine. Reasons I think so:

  • your second reference, in which Google announced they are parsing Javascript to get as close to user experience as possible
  • When I go to Google webmaster tools, although I couldn't verify the site, it showed the site the way it actually looks.

Supposedly there is or will be a way to verify that the site is parsing correctly, but I can't get into the webmaster tools without verifying the site, so couldn't confirm that.

I think the best way to get the site visited is to get it referenced on multiple sites that Google visits. I'll post something on MMI now; posting another reference on the CF list will be good too. And we can ask Jonathan if the new CF site can include a link (when the FAQ is included, it will have a link).

I expect the site to start getting indexed within a month, likely much sooner.
