Google +1 Recommendations Rolling Out To All Sites Sporting A +1 Button

In its continued push to Google+-ify the internet, Google is launching +1 recommendations to all +1 buttons across the web.  The new recommendation  functionality will find similar recommendations that have already been discovered on the site:

Included in the recommendations will be +1 stats and circled friends who have already +1’ed the recommended content.   Recommendations will only be from the same domain or sub-domain, no outside content will be recommended.  There will be no need to swap any code, +1 buttons will be automatically updated.  Recommendations will begin showing for all users whether or not they are signed into Google+.  Here’s a look at recommendations that were active on the googleplusplatform.blogspot.com domain:

Users can sign up for a  developer preview to see the recommendations before they are fully pushed live.  For more information, see the Google+ Developers Blog.
