LOL, you announce it like Javascript is some brand new thing. Those who hate it will continue to use noscript.

However, it's downright shocking that Google isn't already doing this, they index text found in flash, and they index the color content of images FFS.

funny how i turn off java script and flash from every website and only allow whats nessassary for functionality.

the sad thing is, with this, they could force me to use javascript on more websights to get basic functions, as google now makes it searchable.

My 5 year old daughter also know that never execute any code / script that you do not know.

I construct a web page with a fake GET / POST request, trick Googlebot to execute my script, and the script is actually tring to Hack or Attack another web site.

When I get caught, whose fault is that? I have some malicious code, but I have never executed it.

Really great to hear this news because as a developer I had two thoughts whether to use or not Ajax in my website. But it is a relief to me now and I am going to try how it works.

While what he's saying isn't really valid in a legal sense, it would be possible to get Google to run malicious javascript code since the whole point of AJAX is that it allows js to execute server-side scripts. AJAX blurs the lines between client(front) and server(back) scripting. This is a huge part of web development now. I just really wish that Javascript didn't suck so badly.
