Another fortunate co-incidence.. Marc Liron, a Microsoft-certified “Most Valuable Professional”, emailed me this morning about Google’s new “Video Sitemaps” service. Their conventional Sitemaps service, you may remember, is a way to help Google to more intelligently “crawl” your pages. Now they’ve launched a beta-trial of a similar service for videos.

I won’t tell you any more about this, because Marc has written an extensive and knowledgeable article about this. You can read it here:

He’s also planning to release some free software to create Video Sitemaps. You can read about this towards the end of his article.
