Description Susan McCourt CLA 2011-03-10 17:33:27 EST
Forgetting about the broader issues of Web Site architecture, it seems like we should be using hash bang instead of just hash.
Comment 1 Boris Bokowski CLA 2011-03-10 19:47:33 EST
This would require following the spec that Google put forward for using hashbang instead of hash.
Comment 2 Simon Kaegi CLA 2011-03-10 22:05:03 EST
We can talk more about this but I'm not so sure. You typically use hash-bang for URI to the real content so that search engines can recognize the difference between pages that unique "internal" content vs. a sub-section of a resource.

In our case we don't actually host the content so it's not an internal address to something otherwise not viewable as other than relative case we use the full URI.
Comment 3 John Arthorne CLA 2011-10-27 15:42:27 EDT
I don't think we'd care about an external search engine indexing your workspace anyway - it's inevitably going to be stale.
