The solution seems to me to change the output format of the TW to a form that search engines can index. Actually, search engines can index PDF etc. so *if* the TW became very popular then search engine providers would write code to index TW's - we shall have to hope this happens :-) /Joe > There was a "blog edition Tiddlywiki" as a part of core.
