Webmaster Level: All(Cross-posted on the Inside Search Blog)
With the latest improvements to the way authorship annotations look in search and the addition of authorship to Google News, authors have been really excited about getting more visibility, and users benefit from seeing the name, photo, and way to connect with the person who created the content.
Authors have also been giving us a lot of feedback on what else they'd like to see, so today we're introducing “Author Stats” in Webmaster Tools that shows you how often your content is showing up on the Google search results page. If you associate your content with your Google Profile either via e-mail verification or a simple link, you can visit Webmaster Tools to see how many impressions and clicks your content got on the Google search results page. Check out what Matt Cutts would see for his content:
To see your information, go to google.com/webmasters and login with the same username you use for your Google+ Profile. On the left hand panel, you can see “Author Stats” under the “Labs” section. This is an experimental feature so we’re continuing to iterate and improve, but we wanted to get early feedback from you. You can e-mail us at authorship-pilot@google.com if you run into any issues or have feedback.
If you’re a content creator interested in learning more about authorship, check out our Help Center.

Sweet.
But Google is still not approving our application for PopHerald.com, it's been almost a month now..
Good to know that. It helps us a lot in understanding personal branding.
it seems to me an important update and it will help authors from the smaller to the biggest sites. Can it be considered also an new fix to content duplication/scraping?
It's all about personal branding...
How to implement this.
I hope this help all writers to increase his personal content writing strategy
I love this strategy

This is really cool!! I have noticed this change when I was searching for web designer blogs in Google blog search, but the time I was not getting the actual reason. Now I understand. Its really great.
Our blog is:

It is just like getting the recognization what you have written and published over the internet..
hmm, so i guess it really is important to start my very own content rather than just copast-ing from another site :)
well done
I do not see any stats on the webmaster tools for my site audiorecording.me. I already submitted an authorship application for a week already but as of now, I still do not see it working...
Any tools that we can use to check if there are problems with this implementation? I use email verification method and the rich snippets tool cannot be used with this. Please advise. Thank you.
