19Major search engines can't find government info on agency web sites
A senior Google manager testifying before the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Government Affairs last week told them that major search engines miss at least some portion of the information contained on some 2,000 federal agency web sites. The manager, John Lewis Needham, stated that the search engines' "crawlers" miss information on agency web sites because of the way the sites are constructed. According to Needham, even the government's own search engine, USA.gov, misses a lot of information.

Yeah interesting post. Do you know The Bush administration on Wednesday asked a federal judge to order Google Inc. to turn over a broad range of material from its closely guarded databases.
