Today, Google is announcing their +1 Button.  It’s a button similar to the Facebook “Like” Button and the Twitter “Retweet” button.  The button will appear next to Google Ads and Google search results and will allow people to quickly and easily  ”+1″ their findings and thus create a record of their likes for themselves and their friends.  Here’s what it looks like on my google profile:

I think people will actually really enjoy this feature, and “+1″ will become a household term within a month. Big statement there, so feel free to disagree.

THIS is probably the most comprehensive guide about +1′s features.

Here’s what Google has to say about it:

The +1 button is shorthand for “this is pretty cool” or “you should check this out.” Click +1 to publicly give something your stamp of approval. Your +1′s can help friends, contacts, and others on the web find the best stuff when they search.

Sometimes it’s easier to find exactly what you’re looking for when someone you know already found it. Get recommendations for the things that interest you, right when you want them, in your search results.

The next time you’re trying to remember that bed and breakfast your buddy was raving about, or find a great charity to support, a +1 could help you out. Just make sure you’re signed in to your Google Account.

In order to +1 things, you first need a public Google profile. This helps people see who recommended that tasty recipe or great campsite. When you create a profile, it’s visible to anyone and connections with your email address can easily find it.

Your +1’s are stored in a new tab on your Google profile. You can show your +1’s tab to the world, or keep it private and just use it to personally manage the ever-expanding record of things you love around the web.
