Google has announced today that their +1 button is going global. At first Google will begin the roll out on google.co.uk, google.de, google.jp and google.fr, but more sites will be following shortly after.

Google is a service to recommend webpages to your friends. While they’re mainly involved with Google’s Search, the buttons are also incorporated on websites. As you’ll notice, we use it on our site.

Better news: We’ve got it on goog authority that +1 will be taking over for Buzz in our Google Reader accounts very shortly.
