Use Google+ to Improve Your UI

One interesting difference: Google just uses &#60;div&#62; for their buttons instead of &#60;a&#62; tags or even &#60;button&#62;. They also don't set cursor: pointer (the hand) for them.<p>Any UI people want to comment on the best practice for cursor styles? I always figured pointer should be used for all buttons or links that have an action attached.

These look good to me (apart from the previously mentioned issue of not actually using &#60;a&#62; tags or similar), but where's the license on these? Neither the site nor the download includes any license information.

almost identical to the particletree buttons from almost 4(!) years ago <a href="http://particletree.com/features/rediscovering-the-button-element/" rel="nofollow">http://particletree.com/features/rediscovering-the-button-el...</a>

Well done. Backpacking an existing fad to get visibility from early adopters on your project. Case study in excellent blog-marketing.<p>Thanks for the buttons too~

No, no, no! Please don't let GMail and G+'s new look become a new fad. The white space around every element is very wasteful and obnoxious. Not everyone has huge resolutions and those that do don't appreciate having to scroll several times just to see past the first 4 or 5 entries in a list view.

It looks pretty nice but the use of background gradients is inconsistent. The buttons with a background image have no gradient but the other buttons do.

Is it me, or does this theme look similar to jQueryUI?

For the love of god people, please stop using the Silk icon set. It's had a good run and it's time to retire it.

Just wanted to say thanks for providing this - it's already been helpful
