In order to celebrate and make the second birthday special, Google today rolled out a new Google+ Follow button for sites and new badges for Communities, Pages and Profiles. A new Follow button is a standalone plugin which allows visitors to follow you from your site itself.
Second in update is a new badge for communities, new badges are highly configurable, making it much easier to match your site design. The time when visitors click the “Preview” button, they can view recent posts as well as join while returning to your site is as simple as closing the new tab.
