Embedding JSON post from Google Plus

Google has recently announced the ability to embed posts on our websites. I thought I'd give it a whirl with the following post and see how it works.


Update: One interesting change is that you can comment on and interact with embedded posts from the main blog page instead of having to go to a specific post. I'm not sure yet whether that is a good thing or not.. Also, given how much comment spam I am getting (even if it is deleted automatically for the main part), I can see why some would disable the native comments. I'm not at that point yet.

I may remove the whole comments box here if I embed a post, but maybe not. I can't tell whether I should treat it more like a shared link or a post on its own.
