    You might have noticed a funny "+1" button at the top of the page next to the text: "show your support for TruckersReport." The +1 Button is a new feature from Google, which they explain here:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OAyUNI3_V2c&feature=player_embedded

    I'll be honest, the +1 Button is largely a popularity contest between websites. But it's a popularity contest that I'd like us to win (at least in the trucking industry). :biggrin_25519: If you can take a second to click that button, I'd really appreciate it.

    The button won't be a permanent feature at the top of the page, I just have it up there to give it some visibility and get the ball rolling. After a week, I'll move it down below the threads and posts.

    I hear members asking for TruckersReport t-shirts, but I don't really want to get into the headache of selling them. So how about this: if we get that +1 button to 1000, I'll celebrate by having a bunch of t-shirts made and just give them away. Sound good?

    Edit: Many users are using out-of-date browsers and will not be able to see/click the button. To update your browser for free, go here:

    Been there, done that, did NOT get the T-Shirt - but it sure would be fun to have one! Thanks Truckers Report, for being the BEST!

    Yes I too pressed the support button. For a prize how about 1 infraction free post when someone posts something so stupid that the need arises for it. (I'm just saying)...

    I noticed that after pushing the button (and logging in to Google) the little #5 above the button didn't change. I was thinking it would be a counter and wondered why it was only a 5, but obviously it a) isn't a counter or b) isn't current. Will we be able to publicly see the numbers of the winner (TTR)?
