Google +1 available June 1?
« on: June 01, 2011, 07:34:46 AM »
TechCrunch says Google will be making the +1 button available today/tomorrow. (It'll probably be tomorrow for those of us in Asia.)

Yep, they are pushing it inside my adsense account.

There are so many different buttons you can add these days that I have started to remove them.  I find it is rare that they get clicked and they just clutter up the place.  Just another thing to keep updated on a site when the next best thing comes along.  Perhaps I am just not making the most of them though?

Twitter, Facebook, Google +1 and LinkedIn is all we need these days it seems. It's a lot less than even a few years ago when we were including all those social bookmarking sites.

It's now live:
http://www.google.com/webmasters/+1/button/index.html

Put it up, then thought if it's a vote for a page then it's going to be relatively irrelevant for many commercial pages.

The +1 button shows up for signed-in users of Google.com, in English, using a modern browser.
anyone seen it on .co.uk (or elsewhere other than .com)?

well, I actually meant do you see the +1's on Google.co.uk when you search, but I went to look at your mates site anyway and I can't see any +1's?

Gurtie,  Haven't seen them on .co.uk  or .au or .za

Strange you can't see them on the am site - I see them and checked with a few others around the edinburgh area going in with iphones and they can see them?

strange. I'm logged into Google (doesn't appear to make any difference, but just in case, logged in before visiting the site). On this page for example http://www.edinburghlothiandecorators.co.uk/painting-damp-weather/ I see the facebook/twitter/rss links top right, nothing at all around the post specifically, and then a FB like button on the right towards the bottom of the page.

Only mention of Google in the source is for analytics.

exactly the same on the homepage  :-\
