Google +1 button launches across the web

Written By technotheory on Thursday, June 2, 2011 | 7:01 AM

Some websites now plus-oneable - Google has announced that its +1 button will be proliferating across the web from today, landing on websites themselves rather than solely on Google.com search results.

The +1 button is a lot like the Facebook 'Like' button, allowing users to say "this is pretty cool" to their friends and contacts (Google's words, not ours).

Google has partnered with 11 big-traffic sites which will be the first to get the +1 button, including Rotten Tomatoes, Reuters, Best Buy, BloomBerg and the Washington Post.

The button will also start appearing on the Google-owned Android Market, YouTube and Blogger.

Another way to not use words

The extended +1 rollout comes hot on the heels of Twitter's launch of the Follow button for websites, meaning your friends will be in no doubt about whether or not you're a fan of a web page now as you 'Like' it, 'Follow' it and then '+1' it.

Google says that the +1 button should "make search results even more helpful and relevant" – which essentially means we'll all be helping Google sell more targeted advertising, as our own Gary Marshall points out.

Google Closes Newspaper Archive Project

Written By technotheory on Saturday, May 21, 2011 | 3:19 PM

Scanning all the news ever proves too strenuous - Google has shut its newspaper archive project down, after digitising around 2,000 titles.

The search engine had hoped to create a mass digital library of every article ever written, but Google has announced that it will not be processing any more files.

A spokesperson for Google said, "We work closely with newspaper partners on a number of initiatives, and as part of the Google News Archives digitization program we collaborated to make older newspapers accessible and searchable online.

"These have included publications like the London Advertiser in 1895, L'Ami du Lecteur at the turn of the century, and the Milwaukee Sentinel from 1910 to 1995."

Relevant

The statement continued, "Users can continue to search digitized newspapers at http://news.google.com/archivesearch, but we don't plan to introduce any further features or functionality to the Google News Archives and we are no longer accepting new microfilm or digital files for processing."

According to an email sent to newspaper partners, Google has drawn the curtains on the Google News Archives programme in order to concentrated on "newer projects that help the industry, such as Google One Pass, a platform that enables publishers to sell content and subscriptions directly from their own sites."
