[OSM-talk] SEO

[Gregory]

Since Firefox 3 (search as you type now in the address bar, it finds urls or
page titles you've previously been to, even if you type something mid-url),
I've been apending &map=Durham to the permalink url.
I haven't been using that for a link, but it means next time I want to view
the same area I just have to type in map=Durham to bring back the address.
Maybe title= would be more suitable.
