A study by Conductor shows only 9% of technology blogs have fully implemented the authorship, rel=author, attribute fully on their site. That is less than 1 out of every 10 blogs.
This is somewhat shocking because (1) these are technology blogs that should know about the feature and (2) it is shown to increase the click through rate from the Google search results to the web site.

If you’re on Google+, you probably noticed that the ‘local’ stars are uber-geeks: most of the top followed profiles belong to people who work for Google (or Facebook!) But what about real celebrities?

Looks like Google+ isn't only for nerds like me, unless Ashton Kutcher is also a nerd, oh maybe he is.
Ashton Kutcher admits he needs more practice inside. The famous Hollywood star is the latest member of still-exclusive and hard-to-join Google+ social networking site launched by Google last Thursday. No official word yet about the exact date of Kutcher’s inclusion inside G Plus, but his first post was recorded July 1st. He said, “sweet. another thing for me to post on.” Delete the scoop?
