We've added in Google +1 buttons next to the Facebook Like buttons on the site. Let us know what you think.
You can learn more about Google +1 on YouTube at

Where?
Can't see a google button. Do I need to log into my google account? Or do something else?

Does this make the site appear higher in the search results, or why would I press this button?

Nope. Not visible for me. That'll give me something to play with tomorrow.
Night all.

Anyone else not seeing the +1 button?
If so, can you tell me what style you are on (the mobile version won't see it) and what platform and browser you are using?
Thanks!

I'm not seeing the +1 button.
I'm using Windows 7 Home Basic I'm pretty sure that's what it is and I'm using the newest version of Safari

I cannot see it either. I'm on my iPhone, using Safari and am NOT in mobile forum view. Just regular.

Hmm, looks to be multiple issues with the implementation of +1, as display on Safari is not working and on PC/Firefox/Chrome/IE it works in the news and blog sections but not here on the forums. We'll, it's new tech. We'll see what changes happen here in a couple days.

Hmm, but the button still doesn't actually work to +1 a forum thread. Just get a red button with ! in it :(
I'm on Windows 7 with the latest Internet Explorer software. I see the button on every thread.

Same here. I clicked the +1 (for this thread) and confirm in the authorise box. Then the icon changed red. You can click the (now) red button and a help dialogue box opens up suggesting possible causes.

Windows 7 + Chrome

I noticed that Google had made some improvements to +1 and noticed that it's now working on our interior forums. At least, the +1 stuff is working for me on Firefox.
Please let me know if you have any trouble using the +1 functionality on the forums.

The +1 stuff isn't in the mobile style at the moment.
