Today I wanted to +1 this page on Google+:
http://www.python.org/getit/mac/
When I clicked the +1 button (using a Google+ extension for Chrome on Mac OS X), it said the description of the page was:
None
Looking at the source of the page, I see:
<meta name="description" content="None" />
You should either put descriptions on the Python website pages or remove these meta tags altogether, because this makes posts about python.org on Google+ (and probably other services) look silly.

I've modified the build.py to use the title as default for keywords and description. Not ideal, but still better than "None". The next site rebuild should fix the problem. On 31.12.2012 16:29, Michael Foord wrote:
