Does anyone know if a tilda "~" is generally considered a flag for a dynamic URL to search engines? I know that the usual dynamic parameters, such as '?' and '=' can be an issue, but I've seen little evidence one way or the other how the tilda is treated. I may be stuck with this solution to have several tilds in the URL, and are trying to guage what impact it will have in Google and other engines.

Thanks in advance.

Probably not. I can think of several website hosting operations, mostly free, that will use a URL structure like www.domain.com/~username for the account. I believe my ISP's free web hosting program does that, actually.
