he might be using the technique well, but the site isn't even indexed on Google. is the purpose of doing this to improve search engine listing, or just to make your URL look cool? Maybe he's just launched it or something and hasn't got round to actually submitting it to the engines?
Personally I've never felt the need to bother with it, as Google can index your site with URL parameters anyway.

Im just waiting to hear from him on how he did it .. but I'm sure its just using apache .. I heard this is much easier to do in Apache 2 but we all still run 1.3 as standard so my quest continues ! Anything I find I'll let everyone know !

I was looking for the same thing over a month ago and didn't find anything other than what's in the Apache docs.
