What you have told me is that you are woefully ignorant of how good 
Google results are. For example, search 'pyparsing'. First 3 hits are

http://pyparsing.wikispaces.com/
http://pyparsing.wikispaces.com/examples
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pyparsing/
etc.

Just what one would want to get info about and possibly download 
PyParsing. Compare that to a linear scan of 100s of titles under your 
general category 'parsing'.

A site search bar would improve its usefulness a lot.
