Google can be used to search XML files by using their filetype operator. And this can be used to search RDF's, RSS's as well.
But it has 2 problems:
- It works on file extensions. So if I have a link like http://www.livejournal.com/users/gauthampai/data/rss and that link is actually to a RSS file, that file will not be listed (as it does not have the extension rss).
- It does not understand the difference between an element (what is inside angular brackets) and its value.
In an earlier blog entry, I had written that I had used XML/XSLT approach to my website. Now it is not listed in Google! 🙁
