Google has already indexed this page. Pretty impressive. One quick hack would be to put up a search box that redirects to a google search.

Google seems to like news.yc. I week or two ago I did a search for something obscure without using site:news.yc, and it returned a post from this site that had been posted something like 48 minutes before my search.

I remember a few instances of people submitting google searches as stories and within an hour the news.yc story was showing up in the results.

The recent stuff is easy, but google seems to not do as well once pages aren't already accessible from the front page.
