Any Insights On HTML5 Parallax Sites & SEO?

[PHDL]

Looking for any insights regarding experience with optimization and HTML5 websites that use parallax scrolling making the website only one page (single unique URL).

If done right, I've seen a number of these sites with great UX, clean design and nice layouts, but it comes down to only being able to optimize a single page. Does Google view single page sites as less authoritative? I'll open the floor to any comments at all about this. Thanks in advance Mozzers.

the problem would be with trying to rank for more then one keyword.

Multi page sites dont necessarly rank better, but they can rank better.

Wouldn't this be the same problem as using <frames>?</frames>

What Alan said, as long as you optimize for 1 Keyword you could do fine.
