It's an upvote. Not unlike saying "LOL" after, but not quite as funny?

On sites like Digg and Reddit, when you see something you like, you click a 
button that adds one to it, and the things with the highest score (i.e., the 
most upvotes and fewest downvotes) is what winds up on the front page.

+1 is the online equivalent of the golf clap.
