> > Bob - in that vein how about putting the word "forum" on the post page somewhere. We use "board" but I think most people now use forum. It's probably the word I would plug into a search if I wanted to limit my results to user experiences.

Perhaps you could add it somewhere. I don't know if you even need the word to be visible on the page for google to pick it up in searches but I do know that it's won't pick up words marked in the code as a comment (tried that).
