I want to install one, but there are many, which one should I install? Also, is there one with a twitter button as well?

Thanks

    I always use ShareThis plugin in combination with a Google +1 button. ShareThis automatically adds the most popular social networking buttons to the end of each post or page, depending on your settings. No watermarks or anything either.

      Thanks, will consider, however I'm looking for to have buttons that display the number of total likes with facebook and twitter.

        ShareThis can show the total numbers of likes and follows.

    I like the Socialize plugin. Has lots of options on button sizes, counts and positioning.

    How about none. While an individual plugin like this might not affect performance, if you continue to add small plugins like this it will. Not to mention if you have scores of sites in the same hosting account, each one using a plugin.

    Its a simple to copy and paste to put it exactly where you want it in your theme. Use the the_permalink function to specify the url on the homepage and category pages.
