I don't care, quite frankly. And neither do Google. What you're proposing is
more like search engine suicide than search engine optimization. You may
*think* it's a good idea, but it isn't.

Then put some more content in there. How about a list of links to your most
popular or most recent articles, or a rotating list of links to
randomly-selected articles? How about a bit of text explaining what your
site is for, what it does, and who might benefit from using it?

Your time and effort will be much better spent producing a useful,
informative and/or entertaining site than by playing silly games with the
search engine robots.
