Google, Yahoo and Microsoft Working Together on SiteMaps.org

SiteMaps.org will do the impossible: Unite Google, Yahoo and Microsoft. The big three have agreed to work together on the Google-created, XML-based protocol.

SiteMaps has seen great adoption by search engine optimzation professionals and webmasters alike, as the tool makes it easier for search engine spiders to index a site and tell how frequently it's updated.

The Big Three will encourage other search engines, as well as CMS vendors, to support the protocol.
