IOActive Labs Research: I can still see your actions on Google Maps over SSL
shows the concept of SSL traffic analysis pretty well. It also might be easier to understand for less technically inclined people, as in "An attacker can still figure out what you're looking at on Google Maps" (with the addendum that it's never going to be a 100% perfect and that my shoddy proof of concept has lots of room for improvement).

Chinese and Japanese also seem unusual because there are relatively few links from pages in these languages to pages in English. This is despite the fact that Japanese and Chinese sites are the most popular non-English sites for English sites to link to. However, the number of sites in a language is a strong predictor of its `introversion', or fraction of off-site links to pages in the same language. Taking this into account shows that Chinese and Japanese webs are not unusually introverted given their size. In general, language webs with more sites are more introverted, perhaps due to better availability of content.

One month with Google+: why this social network has legs
Google+ also offers the ability to re-share posts made by others. Twitter's retweet feature is similar, where the other person's content shows up in your own feed as something that you have "forwarded" onto your own followers. This in itself is handy, but Google+ takes it a step further by also offering options not to allow re-sharing (say you make a private post to a small group of people and you don't want those people re-sharing your thoughts to their own friends).
Et oui, Google+ peut bloquer le copier-coller et la capture d'écran : c'est ça le Web 3.0.
