Comment on Google’s +1 explained and how to install… by website design

@Tom, agreed. Obviously with +1, Google will be lending weight to how many ‘likes’ a page has in it’s SERPS, but I see no incentive for the average user to +1 a page that they like.

People will never use smartphones to buy online at least in the near future, many will be afraid of all kinds of attacks.

My thoughts on Google +1 Clearly lots of benefits for the webmaster, but what's in it for the punter?

I just got this in the mail a couple of weeks ago from Amazon. Haven’t had a chance to read it yet, but I will soon. Positive reviews like these make me feel like the investment was well worth it.

BlackBerrys would beat Iphones in the near future, same I predict for Androids vs iPads. Very good pointers regarding the mobile online market, though hard to believe people will use smartphones to buy online but you never know.

As always you are providing nice info , I myself am Using HTML5 and I belive it’s a pretty slick tool , I suggest you give it a try as , well , there is a HTML5 version of twentyten them for wordpress users , with fall back for browsers which do not support HTML5. Everyone using FF 3.6+ has support for HTML5 though.
