# Useful information you may have missed

Friday, October 06, 2006


When we launched this blog in early August, we said goodbye to the **Inside Google Sitemaps**
blog and started redirecting it here. The redirect makes the posts we did there a little difficult
to get to. For those of you who started reading with this newer blog, here are links to some of
the older posts that may be of interest.
