A couple weeks ago, we reported on Google's new rich snippet markups and asked our audience if they will use it on their web sites. With 90 responses in, I wanted to share the results of the poll.
53% of webmasters said they would use the rich snippets, while only 14% said they would not use it. 29% said they may or may not use it. Here is the breakdown:
Question: Will You Use Google's New "Rich Snippets" Markups?
:: Yes said 48 respondents or 53%
:: Maybe said 26 respondents or 29%
:: No said 13 respondents or 14%
Personally, I am trying it out on a few sites and if it takes on, I will continue to add this markup, where it makes sense, to other sites.
Forum discussion continued at WebmasterWorld, Sphinn and DigitalPoint Forums.

Rich Snippets is another trick by google to crawl and most important to organize the data which they crawl. I think next step will be google creating a tool to convert normail html to rich snippet markups html page.
