I do. It means that a Google search for any of the topics discussed
here will show up results. You don't have to publish an essay on a web
site to make it available to random searchers; you just post it to
this list, and it's automatically published and crawled:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2014/04/msg00869.html
(Your above post hasn't been crawled yet, so I couldn't find it in a
Google search. But it'll show up soon.)
This is a public list with a public archive, and as such it's
available to every web crawler - Google, DuckDuckGo, Bing, Yahoo, the
lot. And that makes the world a better place. When I ran into an
S-Video problem with Debian, I started by searching the web for
answers. Didn't find a complete answer, but found a partial answer on
this list, and so I joined and asked. If someone else has the same
problem, s/he'll be able to find my post and the responses to it.
Surely that's a good thing!
