Yahoo and Google announced a collaborative site called sitemaps.org to provide webmasters and publishers a unified way to send their content.

Sitemaps are an easy way for webmasters to inform search engines about pages on their sites that are available for crawling.

An effort to set a standard in this arena to move in a unified direction. Will it have an impact on the Search Engine Optimization effort from the end user point of view? But one thing is for sure - it’s just a start and a long way to go further.
