Google Officially Releases Plus Box Feature Again

Mar 20, 2007 at 4:15pm ET by Barry Schwartz

The Google Blog finally announced the Google Plus Box feature that we have been reporting on since last year.

In fact, this is not the first time we had confirmation from Google on the plus box. Matt Cutts of Google wrote about it on December 9, 2006, after several of bloggers spotted tests of it in November 2006 (see Michael, Ionut, Philipp, and Barry).

The Google Blog confirms there are finance plus boxes and maps plus boxes but does not mention the video plus box.

Barry Schwartz is Search Engine Land's News Editor and owns RustyBrick, a NY based web consulting firm. He also runs Search Engine Roundtable, a popular search blog on very advanced SEM topics. Barry's personal blog is named Cartoon Barry and he can be followed on Twitter here.
