does the little logo indicate an "authority" site?

if not what does it indicate? and how do you get to be one?

The title for the logo is http://www.google.com/images/persona...zed_result.gif

so I assume you have made some personalisation ?

On my own sites which have the logo next to them (in different results obviously) I've done nothing...

Seems to be linked to the "interests" variable. Remove that and it disappears.

Never looked at the personlisation, but I am guessing this is a way of flagging up sites on topics that you select as interests.
