New Look to Google Sitemaps

[qbert_seo]

There is a brand new look to Google Sitemaps:

www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/

One of the more interesting items to note is the addition of feeds showing up in that web stats. If Google shows this information are they using it (or starting to) as part of their algo?

What does everyone think of this new look?

I think that being able to see how many people subscribe to your feed via Google reader is a pretty cool little feature, I just checked myne and I have a whopping 3 subscrbers, hint, hint subscribe to my feed.

Yes mine does not have an overwhelming number of subscribers either (blatant hint back). But now that they are displaying this info; it begs the question of how they are using it.

Another change is that the Pagerank distribution bars have been dropped.

There are now a few lines of description against each option, which
is useful for the first-time user.

The PageRank distribution bars are still there. They are under crawl stats.
