RE: googlebot
Googlebot, Google’s Web Crawler
Googlebot is Google’s web crawling robot, which finds and retrieves pages on the web and hands them off to the Google indexer. It’s easy to imagine Googlebot as a little spider scurrying across the strands of cyberspace, but in reality Googlebot doesn’t traverse the web at all. It functions much like your web browser, by sending a request to a web server for a web page, downloading the entire page, then handing it off to Google’s indexer.

Googlebot consists of many computers requesting and fetching pages much more quickly than you can with your web browser. In fact, Googlebot can request thousands of different pages simultaneously. To avoid overwhelming web servers, or crowding out requests from human users, Googlebot deliberately makes requests of each individual web server more slowly than it’s capable of doing.

Googlebot finds pages in two ways: through an add URL form, http://www.google.com/addurl.html, and through finding links by crawling the web

We are being watched

RE: googlebot
They want our BRAINNNNNNNNS!!:P

Its collecting info for the Google Search Engine.
If they find anything worthwhile ,say Sakru
posts up his recipe for Shoo Fly Pie they put into
the Google Search Base.

You go to Google & search Shoo Fly Pie &
presto one of the responses is Sarku's Shoo Fly Pie.

For some Strange reason it slurped up my Profile
on Both the FFG Forums & the BGG Forums.So Goggling Old Dwarf
you will get them as some of the responses?

RE: googlebot
We had him crawling around our forum. We tend to think of him as a little dog fetching and returning info. I think we even named him but we lost so much data in our server meltdown I can't remember.
