You have posted on your website a video from Youtube, Dailymotion, Vimeo, [...] or even a SlideShare presentation? Check your site on Google, you might get a thumb near your website.

When you click on the thumbnail, it's the same as if you had clicked on the link : you can't know from which video or presentation this thumbnail is extracted.

"Twice this week when I searched for a blogger's name and some other related keywords, I noticed that Google is running a little thumbnail alongside the first links."
