Yesterday Google launched their new +1 service which will enable you to recommend sites and even ads to friends and contacts.
It’s a way of giving something a “thumbs up” without having to tweet or blog about it, and your contacts will be able to find it really easily because as they search they will instantly see which sites have got thumbs up from their contacts.
I think that this is a neat option, I like how Google are pushing to make thing more social.
If you want to get involved with the initial launch of Google +1 you need to make sure that you have a Google Profile and visit the experimental search site. I’m heading over there right now!

We knew this was coming from google in some form or another. Actually looks pretty cool.

Yeh, i’m not sure if i’m 100% convinced about it…but i’m sure it will be refined over time!
