I think floyd parks is the guy who wants to "have the most friends on g+ EVER!"

I love G+ so much I have almost forgotten FB.

Then he should post pictures of cats or naked women or naked women with cats.

I dunno, with the exception of the floyd's G+ seems to be populated with all the people I really want to socialize with and I'm liking it just fine. I'm okay with leaving all my dogmatic religious political and otherwise annoying "friends" at Facebook. Seems there was a reason we lost touch oh those many years ago.

Just don't forget to check the Lash Euro-romp updates on Facebook when they start. I won't have time to upload to G+, Twatter, Myvice, Fricker, Lovejournal or any other social apps.

...and NO, I don't want them all linked. Thank you. That would be scary.

There is now a +1 icon on websites along with the all the other like and share buttons. Mousing over the icon you are told that you will +1 <your name here> publicly. I've clicked on a few pages but what actually happens? I don't want or need Google+ to announce to anyone that I +1'd any random website (like Facebook) but who would actually see it and where? It would be helpful to be able to access all my +1 web pages but I don't see any options for that either.

Anyone?

I think the +1 remains as a tag on the site, so if other friends visit it, they can see how many people have +1ed it, and see your name if they hover over the icon. As for going back to sites you've +1ed? no clue - or I haven
t found it yet

To see what you've +1'ed, go to your Profile page. On that page is a row of button near the top (Posts, About, Photos, Videos, +1's). Click +1's and it shows what you've done that to.

However, it seems to only list +1 on other sites than Google+, so you can't use it to find comments or posts there that you've liked.

So far I'm not finding that anyone else's name shows up when I hover over the icon. But apparently there are other uses (see below).

Thanks, Alex, that's exactly what I was looking for. It's also interesting to click on Learn More on the +1 page. It looks like Google will use +1's to further "personalize" your search. Sites where people in your circles have added a +1 will probably show up higher on the list of results. That's my interpretation anyway.

Tell me about it. I keep having to remind myself to check FB, and then it's like wandering from an interesting conversation into a room packed shoulder to shoulder with everyone I've ever met talking at full volume. I might start "hiding" everyone who isn't family and/or interesting.

Isn't this also part of the "Sparks" thing?
