Why wont Google crawl my damn site?

Yahoo seems to like my site just fine but Google wont seem to crawl it for anything. Even though I've put a few inbound links on other domains/pages that Google occasionally visits, and the site is updated pretty regularly. I do use .htaccess to make the page appear static, which means there's a lot of 302's, especially to exit to sponsors.. could this be turning Google off to my site? Should I exclude the exit 302's via robots.txt? The site is only a 5-6 weeks old but still.. Yahoo seems to like the site pretty well, it just doesn't index the links that redirect off site, obviously. Any suggestions?
