Google is nice, but what happens if Google only crawls a user's page 
every 3 or 4 days? Old stuff would appear, sure, but someone looking for 
any newer content (or recent changes in old content) would be out of 
luck. Of course, that's assuming that the person is in Google's database 
in the first place.
