Node.js for SEO

[VMLYRDiscoverability]

We've got a client building a site using node.js (http://nodejs.org/) I'm not at all familiar with this and of course need to know how nodejs impacts SEO?   Are you familiar with it?  Any sites you know of using it?  But as I said, bottom line - how will it impact the SEO on the site?

Node.js is a language that allows you to use JavaScript on the server.  if you're familiar with JavaScript, it's usually all executed on the client side, on the browser.

As it's all on the server, it won't have any direct impact on the SEO of the site.  They list a few users on http://nodejs.org/, like Microsoft, eBay, LinkedIn, and Yahoo!.
