Googlebot to start submitting forms and crawling the results
From Google Webmaster Central:

http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2008/04/crawling-through-html-forms.html

brief synopsis is that if Googlebot finds a GET form it will try filling in the form using prominent keywords from the submitting page and if it gets what it thinks are sensible results returned it will index the results page and start crawling off from it.

Interesting stuff.. some sites will probably become an awful lot larger to Google.

Yeah, but to begin with, they will only do this on a limited number of websites.

It will probably be a while before we ordinary site owners and SEO's will feel the effect of this.
