Thanks Z. Glad I started this thread, your post lead me to realize there's also a "+2" (but I really can't think of a use for it here).

Yes, I've seen it elsewhere.
It's probably related to the practice of posting "First!" in a comment on a blog post, even with nothing else to say.

I've seen it used where either the user or the particular post is "voted up". The total of all the "vote ups" is then shown below the users avatar or post. I've never cared for it. For one thing I never seem to rank very high,  but even if I did I say the hell with it.

It was first used in ancient mesopotamia by semitic tribes men.

They were still using Apples back then.

I think it shows agreement with the previous or quoted post. It's gotta be better than adding repetative drivel after a good point (or not even good)has been made. I'm glad to see the +1 as opposed to a pathetic restatement.

Instead of +1 I'm gonna start saying "APPLES".
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.
