    I did a search for "cs3 vs expression web 2" on google.com

    The 40th (approx) search result has a big eBay style icon displayed where one would only ever see text - how did they do it ? That knowledge could be worth a fortune!

    Its a preview frame of a Flash video. You often see the same thing with YouTube videos.

    Do you mean the revver.com result?
    Maybe its because its a video, its showing a screenshot of it.

    Google usually generate these things themselves.

    Will it work if you make the video clip the Focus of your page and have it set up to run automatically.

    Also, if you look at the source for the Revver result, it looks like it includes reference to the video in the <meta>

    i'm not to great on <meta> details but someone who knows more might be able to give better comments....
