ICANN space and things that use it, such as google, cannot find our websites. They can see link to it and such, but when/if they try to follow them it fails so they don't index any of our pages. The idea with grep.geek is to ONLY index opennic pages (though some are mirrors of ICANN content).
I haven't used grep.geek in a while, but it is Jeff (shdwdrgn)'s project.
As for a proxy sort of thing, I know it exists but I can't remember where so someone else will have to tell us! haha

Hey all,One of the problems I initially found & still have with OpenNIC, is being able to find & explore the unique websites it has to offer. I recently did a search at grep.geek to see if I could find my website, which was unsuccessful. How does grep.geek gets it's search results?I think for visitors to be interested in our project, they need to have fun surfing what's on our tld's. In order to do this, they need to be able to find just about everything there. Let's face it, compared to all the ICANN addresses we are tiny, so we need to show off as much as we can. On the grep.geek page there is no info on how to make sure my website gets culled into the search results, so that should be added to it's FAQ page.I think I remember that there was a way for people to explore OpenNIC's tlds before having to change their network settings. If so, this should some how get incorporated into the new site. If not, we should offer a "copy" of some interesting sites to wet peoples appetites!And yes, there is some personal interest here. I of course would like people to find my site. That said, can Google or any other search engine on ICANN find our addresses?
