Unhealthy use of Health sites

Unhealthy use of Health sites
When someone searches a health topic, he/she assumes (often wrongly) anonymity.  http://bit.ly/1bhp64J

Relevant paragraph from report:
_"A patient who searches on a “free” health-related website for information related to “herpes” should be able to assume that the inquiry is anonymous. If not anonymous, the information knowingly or unknowingly disclosed by the patient should not be divulged to others.
Unfortunately, neither assumption may be true. Anonymity is threatened by the visible Internet address of the patient’s computer or the often unique configuration of the patient’s web browser. Confidentiality is threatened by the leakage of information to third parties through code on websites (eg, iframes, conversion pixels, social media plug-ins) or implanted on patients’ computers (eg, cookies, beacons)."_

Google Authorship for the Uninitiated FIRL

Google Authorship for the Uninitiated FIRL
I met someone yesterday who writes professionally all over the web but who had never heard of Google Authorship. I guess that inspired me to compile this round-up post  ...

... something perhaps for you to share with your writer friends as well.
