Google, Yahoo & Microsoft have announced an effort to provide a commonly accepted standard for search engine inclusion via sitemaps. A new search engine protocol is born!

"A Sitemap is an XML file that can be made available on a website and acts as a marker for search engines to crawl certain pages. It is an easy way for webmasters to make their sites more search engine friendly. It does this by conveniently allowing webmasters to list all of their URLs along with optional metadata, such as the last time the page changed, to improve how search engines crawl and index their websites. "
