|  Google Search Results of IBF - Date Error? I dont know whether anyone else noticed this before or not. But I saw something strange in the google search results of IBF. Normally, The new/latest threads of the forum when listed in google search results are shown with the Date of the last post on it. The date is not shown in case of old threads. ^^^^^^^^^ This isnt the strange thing I am talking about. Look at these search results: 1.bmp http://www.indiabroadband.net/mobile...utes-free.html (Mts Mobile - Kolkata and TamilNadu - 10,00,000 Minutes Free) I created this thread on 1st June 2009. i.e - 01/06/2009 according to IBF date format. But notice that the Date is being recognized by google as 6th Jan, i.e - 06/01/2009 Another Example: 3.bmp http://www.indiabroadband.net/stock-...at-sensex.html J4k posted this yesterday, i.e - 2nd June but google detects it as 6th Feb. Now, This can be a bit misleading for users searching for latest content and even if the latest information is available on IBF - users seeing an old date may not open the page. Admin/Mods - Plz check the issue. |

Rep Power: 12  |  Thats not an error ... Google reads the dates the american way and we use the british format on the forum... Ive been thinking of changing it since last year but then it would be a great inconveniance to forum users as we are all used to the British format  If you guys allow me I can change it to the American way which Google will read correctly. |

| @admin Whatever you want. I thought this just might be some ambiguity which has not been noticed by anyone yet.  |
