WHY USE RICH SNIPPETS?
From our experiments, it seemed that giving the user a better idea of what to expect on the page increases the click-through rate on the search results. So if the webmasters do this, it’s really good for them. They get more traffic. It’s good for users because they have a better idea of what to expect on the page. And, overall, it’s good for the web.

GOOD QUESTION.
• People Rich Snippets– LinkedIn and Google Profiles use
microformats.
• Schema.org– Uses microdata.
• Can’t combine two types of formats on the same page.
• Likely best to go with microdata (schema.org)

TESTING MARKUP
• http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets
• Caveat: It’s not always right.
