Google +1 Button

[Mr Happy]

Google have updated their code to the +1 button. Everyone (including KWWH) should update to the new code as it's far faster.

In KWWH (or other sites where you have the button) you need to change:

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js"></script> 

to this

<script type="text/javascript">
  (function() {
    var po = document.createElement('script'); po.type = 'text/javascript'; po.async = true;
    po.src = 'https://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js';
    var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(po, s);
  })();
</script>

Do you find any improvement after adding the +1 code in your website?

Do you find any improvement after adding the +1 code in your website?

Yes I do. In technical terms this is what the new code does. When you download a webpage you have to download images, JavaScript, CSS and the page itself. Your browser downloads all these at the same time. The problem with all JavaScript is it stops the downloading of everything else until it's finished downloading. This is one of the reasons they suggest to have JavaScript at the bottom of the page.

This new code, as well as being better coded, is clever in that it doesn't stop the loading of other elements so they can be downloaded in parallel.
