IMPORTANT METALINK NOTES

IMPORTANT Metalink Notes

I was recently plugged on to one of the podcasts by Steven Chan, in which he described his experiences on running his extremely popular blog on Oracle Applications Technology. An interesting observation pointed out here by Steven was that one of the principle driving object of his blog was that, the metalink which contained a wealth of information was still outside the internet search engine's indexing.

Since metalink does not allow the search engines to index its content due to understandable security concerns, There is a significant percentage of the Oracle Applications Community who Google. Obviously even if the information they are looking out for is available it gets missed out form there search results.

By creating pointers or references to the metalink notes in his blog. It has enabled this information to have wider exposure since his blog is obviously indexed by the search engines, so as the information contained within.

The current post is my bit of effort to carry out this task by listing out a few of my favorite Metalink Notes relating to Oracle Applications.

Please do remember you must have a valid metalink account to access these notes. Also the notes are copyrighted by Oracle and a great amount of time and effort has been put into them, publishing or distributing them is not allowed and more importantly not rite!
