I would deparately love to be able to search my +1's on Google+. I plussed something last night I would like to find again and I can't find it. Remember, we could search our Likes in Buzz.

Jason, if you can remember something from the post, you could try to find it at http://gplussearch.com

Really you would think that this something that Google would be able to do.

On a desktop browser, my profile has a +1 tab.

I like the bookmark/star/+1 concept - any google starred/plussed item (mail, docs, g+, youtube, buzz, search results) could show up in one searchable list. Of course, most of those items would need to stay private. +1 is meant for others to see, so I guess that's not in the works.

I use Google Lists to bookmark links I want to return to. I have a category just for miscellaneous stuff. I like the ability to make them public or private (default private).

Robert Dewey, I agree with you on that remark, however the Likes worked fine in Buzz even though people Liked everything there.

What I really want, and I made this feature request at the beginning of Google+, is the ability to somehow mark, either via the +1 or some sort of pin, or star, an item on mobile so I can return to it on desktop.

A way to search my +1s solves this and I wouldn't think would be very hard to implement for the world's search giant.

Ali Alhasani, I"m not a huge fan of browser extensions.

Jannik Lindquist, I can't remember anything of the post other than an image of a piece of wood or leather about the size of a coin with a short sentence engraved on it. I remember liking the sentence and +1ing the post sometime last night, but I can't remember who posted it, did I comment or just +1 it?, did anyone else comment, etc?

Lorie Johnson, Google Lists? I use GBookmarks for links I want to keep bookmarked. What's lists?

You can create lists of bookmarks under various categories. That's what I do.

I have lists of Bookmarks in GBookmarks. How does that allow me to bookmark an individual post, especially from mobile?

Well, dang. I guess it doesn't bookmark individual posts, does it? I did not know that. That needs fixing.

No. Those are internet +1s, not Google+ +1s.

So, I asked Andrew Tamm, who filled my Stream with a hundred (sarcasm there) animated gifs and cat pictures to remove me from whatever Circle he has me in where he posts the animated gifs and cat pictures. It was either that or unfollow him and I didn't see any reason to unfollow him. Me asking https://plus.google.com/112885755521259735422/posts/78dwnvvgh4p <==edited to add the correct link Then he plusses me onto Public posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/EuuR1tnU3vJ https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/8r6Grcm2Jpj https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/74PgSu6iL2s Then one of his friends (or Circlers) starts plussing me into posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/107120198886093172821/posts/gRW9JhWLs5T Don't get me wrong, I'm all about sarcasm and messing with people, but this seems sort of childish to me. Am I the only one who thinks so? So far I have only blocked

I'm shutting down Google+ for the night and quite possibly for the weekend. Why? This stupid #gifwars thing people are so proud of. This Adam Black guy said he doesn't like gifs and now everyone is mass trolling him. Having been mass trolled like this I can relate to him easily enough. Have an opinion and the collective might of Google+'s lower class denizens jump on a bandwagon. I just saw a post where someone wanted to jump on board and had to get clarification she was tagging the proper Adam Black. She wasn't even connected to him ! Nor was she a part of the original discussion. She just wanted to follow the herd. When I called her out of it she claimed, "one gif doesn't make a troll." Perhaps not, but she's contributing to a larger troll effort. One straw doesn't break the camel's back, but thousands will. So, tonight, Google+ disgusts me. It probably will tomorrow as well. And possibly Sunday. I gave up Google+ for two months this spring
