vahkimetru Posted April 10, 2006 I just checked the online list, it says google.com is using PM? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vahkimetru Posted April 10, 2006 No, I know google can go here to EB, but how does it use PM? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hobbes Posted April 10, 2006 It doesn't "use" it literally. It's a bot that is programmed to crawl all accessible areas of a board. And as a member (human or not) PMs are accessible. So it crawls there, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jonfett Posted April 14, 2006 Just thought I would point out that Googles friend Jeeves popped up today as well! So before anyone starts asking about them as well.. I will point out that it is a bot just like google, only it got jealous of google so came scouting around here to see what it was missing. Poor old bots :sleep: Jon.
