Hey,

I just noticed a new feature in my Google Profile :

"You can verify email addresses and choose which domains (the part after the @) you'd like to appear on your profile. Your email addresses will not be displayed. This will help visitors to your profile know that you are the real you.
You currently do not have a verified email address."

It has been added with the Google Talk availability button few days ago.
Since you cannot verify an identity outside the US (with Knol), this feature can at least proves that you're from one company/university. Nice addition.

Note: You can only verify each of your email addresses against one Google account. (Although if you're using Google Apps, you can use the plus sign to essentially verify the same email address multiple times.)
