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.

I was wondering how long it would take to get a +1 in an answer on this thread

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".
