Question Re:Search engine

This is just something that came to my mind when Skip shared his idea. It should be easier to find people who have out-dated WordPress installations than to find people whose designers don't respond anymore. And thats why I shared it - if anyone wanted to twist Skip's idea and test it out.

Here is one more tip: if you do indeed test this WordPress tweak out - then you don't want to use Google to do your research. You want to use a search engine that allows you to search through the "meta tags" of a website. WordPress embeds a meta tag in all their websites that gives the version number.

You want to search for the string:
"generator:wordpress"
or
"generator:wordpress 3"
in a meta tag search engine.
You can replace the number 3 with older WordPress version numbers too.

I personally have my hands full and don't intend to follow through with this idea.

Thanks for the additional tips, now if I only knew what search engine to use...
