Share This 1.1
November 18th, 2006
I have read several recent discussions about the glut of social bookmarking links on blogs, and the visual distraction they create, and I couldn’t agree more. Alex King has helped solve that problem with the release (and recent upgrade) of his plugin, Share This. A simple text link below the post “Share This”, opens a nifty java script (AJAX?) powered box with all the links there, as well as an option to email the link to a friend. Discussion is ongoing about adding an icon, something that would be “universal”, ala a feed icon, to coincide with the link. All in all, a very smart solution to both offering links to social bookmarking sites and keeping a design clean.
