      Is this because we're now under Mode social rather than Glam social?

   Great news! I see G+ is also there, but what is H+? Perhaps I've missed something.

         And I see the blue reply button is once again alive and well.

    Are the AWOL videos the result of the new button code or just an unlucky coincidence?
    
    Update. Not worried, etc. Just wanted to be sure you knew.

    I am  slowly getting used to it. I wish the count comes back somewhere, I had a lot of them and wish to show them off!

       PS - Just tried out all the buttons and well done on providing an easy user experience with them. Am really enjoying. But still slavering after having a count

          Wow, these shiny buttons look so futuristic! I love them.
          I agree with Suzanne, I think that the counter should be brought back. However, the load time has been cut dramatically because of dropping the counter. I think that having a count with a high amount of Pins on Pinterest, on one of your hubs would encourage visitors to also Pin the hub and be part of the trend.

             Great point. We plan to test the buttons further to see what effect (if any) displaying counts has on shares. We'll test other changes as well, such as the placement of the buttons on the page and a few different styles.
