    by Cindy King / June 4, 2011

    social media researchWelcome to our weekly edition of what’s hot in social media news. To help you stay up-to-date with social media, here are some of the news items that caught our attention.

    What’s New This Week?

    Twitter Introduces the Follow Button: You can now add this Follow button to your website or blog to encourage readers to follow you on Twitter.

    Follow Twitter accounts directly from their blog or website in one click.

    Google +1 Button Rolls Out: You have to opt in to see the Google +1 search results, but Google now has a +1 button for publishers to add to their websites, very similar to the Facebook Like button.  This new button allows readers to share your content with their contacts on Google. You can grab the code and find out more about putting one on your website here.

    Google +1
    The Google +1 button is initially rolling out on a selected number of publishers.

    ‘Google Offers’ to Compete with Groupon: Like Groupon, the new Google Offers gives you daily deals at heavily discounted prices. Google Offers is expected to integrate with Google Wallet, Google’s new mobile payments system.
