The thread title should (hopefully) contain the keywords so that's what should be returned by a search. Personally, I'd prefer to see the title of the thread/post followed by the source returned for a search. So when googling "best Linux" the searcher may get the following results: Is it true that CentOS is the best Linux ever? - CentOS forums Is it true that CentOS is the best Linux ever? - CentOS Wiki Is it true that CentOS is the best Linux ever? - CentOS Mailing List etc Now, if we could just do something about those URGENT - PLEASE HELP!!! threads for which google returns 474,000 hits (not all of which are on centos!)
