The second line of hubski items looks something like this :
by john_doe X #hashtag
where X is usually a dot, but sometimes is a 1, or sometimes 2.
When it's a 1 or 2, hovering over it seems to indicate it is clickable. I have not been brave enough to click one yet. What is it and what does it mean?
Just curious.

Hey, great question. So it will say "shared by __x__ then if it says 1 or 2 or more, it means that also that many more people you follow shared it with you. If you look here you'll notice that the third post listed here was shared with me by sounds_sound plus two other people I follow. It was originally posted by easynow whom I do not yet follow. Make sense?

Thanks guys, that's exactly what I was looking for. I had not noticed that it only shows up in "shared by" items.

Another feature that was just added last week along those same lines that you might find useful is if you go to your "about me" page, on the right hand side there is now a list called "recently shared my posts".

Oops - formatting ate my plus signs, and converted the text between to bold.
Correction - the plus-one or plus-two arein addition to the dot, not instead-of.

Do you just mean in your main feed? That's when it was shared with you by someone. You don't follow the user that posted the thread, but someone you do follow upvoted/shared it. If multiple people you follow shared it then it says + 1 or + 2. When you click on that you can see everyone whom has shared the topic.
