Blogs that Google thinks should be crawled more often. The only way to find out is to check Webmaster Tools.

Does this option work for established blogs only, or also for newer/fresh blogs?

My Dutch blog doesn’t have the faster crawl option. However my posts get indexed within 10 minutes, always.

My advice is to check first how long it takes before a post get’s indexed. If it takes to long, activate the faster crawl. If it gets indexed within the hour, leave it as it is.

I saw this too. I enabled it weeks ago, but I cannot give you an answer. I have not received any traffic from Google images so I have no idea how well it works.

I would assume enabling it is better than not enabling it. =)

Thanks for the great tip. There’s certainly no harm in trying it to see what happens.
