Thursday Tutorial - Google +1

I may be the only person on the planet that doesn't know what this means.

And it's driving me CRAZY!!

I had to figure it out before I end up as a quivering mass of gelatinous substance at the end of my keyboard.

From what I can glean from the internet information, it's basically a 'LIKE' button for your Google Profile. If you click the +1 tab, it will add it to your feed on your Goggle page so that all your minions followers can have access to it.

Was it really that simple?

What are your thoughts on this Google +1 phenomenon? I see tons of people +1'ing my posts. Does this mean they are passing it on for their social media groups can see it too?

For that I thank you!
