This very surprises me. M$N Search crawls this forum on a regular basis.

The meaning of my username "BobTheHob":
It is well known that "Bob" is a nickname for robert in modern times, a lesser known nickname for robert is that of "Hob". Hob is a nickname for robert from the "Middle English" dialect. This is the version of english spoken and written around the late middle ages. Thus my username can be percieved like "RobertTheRobert" which is redundant. As I always like to say "Simplicity in redundancy, and elegance in simplicity".

They pin them up on office walls  and look for hidden messeges.

Hang on, if we have MS search crawling this forum and we know about it, why can't we just make the search bot go to a page of keywords so that this forum gets listed for everything...
I'm often asked why I hate Microsoft - "What did they ever do to you?". Well, I'll tell you. They made dodgy programs and standards which have wasted hundreds of hours of my time involving lost work in crashes and stupidity.

...because that would require a hash-buster for any kind of effectiveness, and I would think that would more piss off the members than anything else.  ;)
