Yes, you missed all topics and all projects ;) The above is no good, by no  
means, you want to raise out of the existing web keywords noise around you.

Just put in all the Squeak project names and all the Squeak topic names,  
as they are now spreaded accross the site.

And get rid of the noise, application development returns 107,000,000  
results and so does web applications. Put in things which makes Squeak  
different from that noise (the "application" terms are infered by the  
crawlers and engines anyways).

I vaguely remember such things can be done by programming a computer  
system? at a central routine ;) But having main buzzwords on the main page  
is a very good start.

Thank you for taking care Janko, good job & good tool.
