Where do Google gets the info they display along with your profile in their "Profile Results" that is shown once you hit search for a particular person? When Google shows incorrect info, there's a feedback option at the bottom and it gives you an option to report a problem on which info is wrong. However, this is a tedious task since I've already done this before and they have corrected it but then when I search again after a couple of months, wrong info is shown again. So maybe I need to correct or do something on the process of putting those info into the profile... Not sure where Google gets all these info.. Help?

Google allows 'authors' and 'publishers' to link their content to their Google Plus page via the rel attribute of links. It can be an actual "< a href..." link or it can be a non-visible "< link..." element. Out of privacy concerns, I use the rel=publisher attribute more often than rel=author but for either you have to set up a Google profile and basically opt-in to surveillance...on the plus side, doing so will probably straighten out their search results—well, maybe.
