Am I correct that Aaron (probably) requested that Google not crawl the forums (via robots.txt doc on server)?
I think it's just a consequence of having the forums only readable if you're signed in; Google can't crawl what it can't see.
Ah, you know what? I think Google was able to crawl the old-skool phone (text only, read-only) format that this forum used to generate...I guess that content was not locked behind a password system.
Now, why can't I remember the name of the oldskool phone format? UPDATE: wap, wap2, imode
