I was looking for info about the power button, so I googled
site:www.laptop.org power button
and got no results. But
http://www.laptop.org/8.2.0/manual/XO_Starting.html should be the first
result!
It seems Google doesn't index *any* of the
http://www.laptop.org/8.2.0/manual/ !?
Try searching for any phrase from the manual in quotation marks; I get a
result from en.flossmanuals.net but never anything from the manuals on
laptop.org.
Very strange. There's nothing in robots.txt or the text that seems to
tell Google "Don't index this manual". I used the new Google 'Add a
result' button to add a search result, but I shouldn't have to do this.
search.yahoo.com gives better results, it seems to be a Google-only thing.
Maybe it's due to the *extremely* garbled broken HTML of the manual. I
mentioned before the duplicated blank <title> tags, now I see there are
there are two <head> sections as well, and one is outside the <html>
wrapper. Given bad enough HTML, automated systems will ignore it. Anne
Gentle has indicated better HTML is available, _who_ can get it on the
web site?*
Also, I noticed that in the few results that Google does return, some
are in www.laptop.org/teamwiki/ , which gives me a 404.
Cheers,
