Google is creating an “Unavailable After” META Tag
This is interesting…
Google is coming out with a new tag called “unavailable_after” which will allow people to tell Google when a particular page will no longer be available for crawling. For instance, if you have a special offer on your site that expires on a particular date, you might want to use the unavailable_after tag to let Google know when to stop indexing it. Or perhaps you write articles that are free for a particular amount of time, but then get moved to a paid-subscription area of your site. Unavailable_after is the tag for you! Pretty neat stuff!

Hmmm… I wonder if people would use this new meta tag on their resumes. Gee, I hate to even put that out there; but imagine a job seeker looking for work. He/She only wants their information out there for a month or so after they find employment and then (with this new tag) their resume is no longer coming up in search results. Not a practice I would recommend as one never knows what opportunities one could miss out on, but… I just wonder.
I suppose one could also use this tag if they were posting jobs on their site and they did not want to go through the trouble of removing all of them manually after a period of time.
These are just my thoughts mind you, what are yours?
