Mountain View, Calif. – Google (NASD: GOOG) on Wednesday introduced an
experimental feature aimed at Facebook’s "Like" button, a new
"+1" button that will allow users to share recommended links directly
within search results. Recommendations from contacts with Google Profiles will
be displayed, or if no contacts have hit the +1 button on a search result,
Google may display how many people from across the Web have "+1’d"
the result.
