Show HN: An animated Google +1 jQuery plugin

Hey everyone, I had the idea to make an animated Google +1 that mimics the style of button seen on any Google search page. I've stuck the source on Github and would love to hear any feedback.

The benefits of the plugin are:

- The button is animated (the same animation can be seen on any Google search page and currently not available)

- Privacy! A user has to opt in (via hover) to enable the button

- The minified plugin is small (~2kb) and contains the default assets encoded in base64 to reduce http requests. This means that when a user visits a page with multiple +1 buttons on, all buttons will load immedieaty and removes the noticable lag / flicker of assets being loaded that is currently seen with the code from Google.

Check out the source on Github: https://github.com/laurencedawson/jQuery.googlePlusOne.js
