If I understand 
<https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3009380/whats-the-shebang-hashbang-in-facebook-and-new-twitter-urls-for> 
correctly, this technique is deprecated, and the page it would lead to, 
when interpreted as Google would interpret it, is quite likely to be 
non-functional, as all it needs to do is provide searchable text that 
would have been seen if you went to the real, Ajax, page, and it 
constructed the working copy of the target page on the fly.
