Opps yeah, sorry right, it's not that easy to sniff stuff. But Wait, aren't the public keys available from SSKs to serving nodes? Sniffers could at least try "SSK@<sniffed public key>/index.html". If sites wanted to be found, they could make sure to have an index. I suppose you could download lots of HTML to try to build a graph of freesites. Of coarse you won't have any idea about what's in the islands. Once you do get the keys you could find out how "popular" items seem to be by collecting stats on how often you see requests for them. Of coarse if you did this on only one node, its specialization would keep you from being able to reliably measure this. All this seems to point away from an "every node for itself" implementation of a search engine. I suppose some group could develope thier search tool, which downloads their latest pile of data periodically off freenet. So how does http://www.freenet.org.nz/search/ work?
