One of FreeBSD's historic strengths has been the handbook and generally
good quality documentation.  There is no way that the FreeBSD project
can ensure that all Google results for everyone in the world are FreeBSD
related "good" documentation, but it can ensure that the documentation
included with FreeBSD is accurate and usable, and it can ensure that the
FreeBSD documentation is available via the internet.

Aside from blindly following whatever generates the most Google results
(an obviously broken solution), what exactly can the FreeBSD project do
to ensure that when someone "Googles" a problem they will end up with a
correct FreeBSD solution?
