The obvious: I'm sure it won't be long before Google creates an embeddable +1 button, for you to include in your site/blog/webapp. Because right now I don't see why I would run a search, click the result, go 'whoah, good article' and then hit back to the results page to '+1' aforementioned article.
What I really like about this, though, is that it sounds so good.
"I'd +1 that."
"Have you +1ed?"
"Where's the essay? Uh, it's in my +1s"
- cyanbane 16y agoI don't see anything that would keep them from moving this to the gtoolbar, Chrome or a javascriptlet. I agree with the branding of it. I doubt I will use it much, but it is catchy.
- wzdd 16y agoThere is something very Google about the branding. It's a little bit nerdy, very simple, and cool. I like it a lot more than "Like".
- DaveMebs 16y ago"It's a little bit nerdy," is exactly the problem I see with this. They are taking a piece of internet/geek culture and expanding it to my Grandma. My Grandma know what it means to "Like" something, but does she understand "+1"? Probably not.
- Andrex 16y agoDid people know what a "googol" was? It doesn't really matter at all in the grand scheme of things.
- shadowsun7 16y agoWell to be fair, Andrex, people still don't know what a 'googol' is. They know 'Google', and what 'Google' means to them is very different from 'googol'.

- herval 16y agodo you really find "have you plus-oned it?" catchy? or are you just being sarcastic? (I'd go the sarcastic route, imho it sounds terrible)
