Google is always experimenting with new features aimed at improving the search experience. Take one for a spin and let us know what you think.
Your selected experiment: You have joined the +1 button experiment. Note that you can only join ONE experiment at a time.
+1 button
This is your selected experiment.
Use +1 to give something your public stamp of approval, so friends, contacts, and others can find the best stuff when they search. Get recommendations for the things that interest you, right when you want them, in your search results.
To participate in this experiment:
Make sure you’re signed into your Google Account (required)
Click the new +1 button, and make your mark on the web
Your +1’s are public. They can appear in Google search results, on ads, and sites across the web. You’ll always be able to see your own +1’s in a new tab on your Google Profile, and if you want, you can share this tab with the world.
Please note, it may take a while before you see the button in search results, and it may occasionally disappear as we make improvements. Your feedback will help us make it better!
Navigate search results quickly and easily, with just your keyboard. As you navigate, items are magnified for easier viewing. If you use a screen reader or talking browser, the relevant information is spoken automatically as you navigate.
Current keyboard shortcuts include:

j or DOWN

k or UP

l or RIGHT
Moves to the next category (results, sponsored links, refinements).
h or LEFT

<Enter>

/
Puts the cursor in the search box.
n

p

For now, you need to use the Firefox 3 web browser with this experiment. This note will be updated as other browsers are added. Magnification already works with Google Chrome andApple’s Safari.
