Facebook uses this technique to fetch thumbnails and descriptions when you post a link.

WordPress 2.9 also includes oEmbed functionality, allowing you to easily add YouTube videos to your posts, simply by wrapping the video page’s URL in a pair of “embed” shortcode tags.

WoorkUp shows how you can implement the feature in your own projects.
