About Google +
A dark rounded-square tile with a subtle vertical gradient and soft inner shadow. A narrow horizontal strip runs along the top edge divided into four equal vertical segments in Google colors (red, blue, green, yellow). Centered on the dark field is a large white lowercase 'g' with a plus sign ('g+') to its right, both rendered as a simple letterform rather than a full wordmark.
The overall look is compact and app-icon-like: the multicolour bar at the top provides a distinctive accent against the matte black background, and the white 'g+' is the clear focal point, slightly inset from the tile edges.
What's in it: lowercase letter g plus sign
Shapes: rounded square horizontal segmented bar lowercase letterform plus sign
Style: minimalist app-icon flat with subtle gradient multicolour accent
Text in logo: g+
The white 'g' and plus sign suggest an account/profile and the idea of adding or connecting; the multicolour strip evokes Google's brand colors.
