'+' was once commonplace as a FID, but modern stuff seems to favour the circle on copper with a pulled back mask and I second the notion of three widely spaced across the board, it also helps catch a board loaded the wrong way around (Seen it!).
Local fids are a good thing is you are going smaller then about 0.5mm pitch, or if the board is very large.
Fid type tends to be a case of asking the board house what they like to see, I have had answers varying from "Don't need them" to "both circles and pluses".
