  I would like to add the Google +1 button to a widget on my blog, but I don’t know how to add the code (http://www.google.com/webmasters/+1/button/). Can you guys help me?

  We’ve just released the Google +1 button into our sharing feature.

  You can find this option in your Dashboard at ‘Settings’ -> ‘Sharing’

  Yes, but I wanted it in a widget so I can add it to my sidebar.

  I’m sorry, but the Google code for the button contains Javascript, so it cannot be placed into a widget. You can still enable it through the sharing feature, however.
