I have recently been thinking about how search engine spiders index a  
website.

At the moment we can provide ways for the spiders to find the page,  
but I do not think its possible for us to tell the spider things like  
where the navigation bar is (as I think it should be indexed  
differently to the main content of the page).

I have written a fairly small document explaining how a future  
version of CSS could help present the documents structure and data to  
search engine spiders in a better way than their current guesswork  
methods.

It would be great if you can give me some feedback.

Sorry, for the use of an external link... at the moment I still want  
to be able to make changes to the document as people make comments or  
suggest changes.
