The Google+ enhancements continue to roll out.  Google Chrome’s web store added Google+ functionality this week post Google I/O.  Google+1 buttons have been added to all of the apps along with a new way to search for apps that utilize social recommendations.

Instead of only browsing apps by popularity, users can now view apps recommended by those within circles:
