OPE categories
Original Message   Jan 7, 2005 4:21 pm
Please list any types of OPE you people think are regularly discussed here. We want to put together a list to let everyone add "labels" to topics and reviews, to help differentiate what is being discussed for newbies.

Just throw the types out here...

We'll clump some into single categories later...

Would it help any for the search engines to be able to search all thread content?

The reason I ask is that when I was searching, before I became a member of WTB, I had been Googling either Simplicity or Snapper (can't remember which) and that is how I stumbled across WTB. Same when I've been doing other searches on Google....searched by a word and forum posts from a variety of forums have come up related to that word.

Just an

A couple of questions for you.

If the search Engines, such as Google, can pick up the content of forums, why would there need to be separate categories? Wouldn't it pick up the word out of forum content, bring up the forum, thus giving the internet user the option of searching the site, using the search option in the upper right corner?

Also, what determines what order the forums (strictly speaking forums here) are brought up on the search engines? Is it how many matching words there are? Or alphabetical order of website name? Sorry if you answered this only already and I didn't catch it.
