Exactly, it is a web-indexing robot.

What's that do?

They tracks posts and idnex items on the WWW. I had never seen them identified before so I was surprised. The web crawls with them but normally its google doing the crawl. The point is to index data in order to be sort by key words in multiple search engines.

In short its how things get found on the WWW.
