[whatwg] Google research into web authoring techniques

Google recently published some (not-very-scientific) research which 
people on this list will probably find interesting:

   http://code.google.com/webstats/index.html

I plan to use this data to guide the development of HTML5. In particular, 
we probably need a <copyright> element. I was glad to see that most of 
what we've been working on in HTML5 is justified by this research -- for 
example the <header> and <footer> elements.
