Google Adds New Features For Original Authors

Google has been harping on content author verification with their rel=“author” tag. About a month ago, circle counts were added in Google’s SERP for verified authors, along with the profile pic. Now they are adding two new features – “add to circles” and comments.


Quote:
Specifically, you’ll now see:
• Circle count. Although you saw the name of an author next to the result, we kept hearing that you wanted to find more info about them. The most popular request was knowing how many people followed that author on Google+, which is now included.
• Add to circles. You should be able to easily engage with and hear more from authors you like, so we're making that easy by allowing you to add authors to your circles right in search results (this feature is rolling out over the coming weeks).
• Comments. Another way you can engage with authors is to comment directly to them on Google+. Now if an author shares an article on Google+ and they get comments on it, you’ll see a link on the search results page to view the comments in Google+.
