I think it probably just boils down to making sure that the google spider can 
get to any of the pages you want it to be able to reach without having to 
execute any JS.  I wonder if one could embed a set of links into a page that 
are essentially there exclusively for spiders to find?  i.e. in your JS 
heavy, AJAX heavy page, they are completely hidden from a normal user's view, 
but to a spider walking the page content, they see them?
