In summary, the conversation is about supporting the website by clicking the Google + icon on the homepage. It is mentioned that mobile users would find it helpful to have a link. The consequences for members are not specified, but one person mentions not wanting any background apps running due to a poor internet connection. Another person clarifies that clicking the icon simply indicates that you like the site and does not add any background apps. The conversation ends with someone asking what to do after clicking the icon, to which it is explained that a Google + account is needed.

Show your support and click the Google + icon on the homepage at the bottom of the right side bar under "Stay Connected". Let's get that count well past 100!

What are the consequences for members? What happens? I have a really crappy Internet connection, and I certainly don't want any background apps running. I have a hard enough time getting onto PF as it is, sometimes.

Thanks

Turbo all it does is tells google you like the site.
I like the site (of course) - I just didn't want to engage some some background app - especially one that "phones home". I don't have enough bandwidth to engage in that stuff.

Thanks, Greg.

You'd just toggle the +1 on and off. Doesn't add :)

I clicked what looked like the Google+ button in the lower right corner of the main PF page, and it took me to the page below. What do I do now?

You need a Google + account. Don't continue if you don't want one.
