Social Bookmarking for WordPress

UPDATE (1/30/08)- Please use this page to create a bookmarklet for yourself. You can select the bookmarking services that you want to include in your post. All you need to do is drag the bookmarklet to your bookmark folder. Everytime you create a post, just open that bookmarklet, enter the post slug, copy the HTML code and then paste it to the bottom of your post in Code View. In case you selected the “Help” icon while adding bookmark services, you’ll notice that the code author has included a link back to his site at the very end of the HTML code. So every time you use his code, his blog gets a track back. So, don’t select the “Help” icon or delete that part from your code when you paste it to your blog post.

Many of us struggle while adding social bookmarks at the end of our posts. Manually adding each bookmark is just painful. Yesterday, I discovered this greasemonkey script that adds 20+ bookmarks at the end of your posts in a single click. The guy has done a brilliant job, I must say.

Here are the steps:

1. Install Mozilla Firefox (just in case…)

2. Install the greasemonkey script

3. Re-start Firefox

4. Install the above script

5. While writing a new post, click on “Code” –> Tools–>Greasemonkey–>User Script Commands

6. Have a Kodak moment and leave me a comment expressing your gratitude

There are some pros and cons of using this script. Please visit the original script author’s site.

See the bookmarks in action at the end of this post.
