Friday December 15, 2006 Being Sociable With Your Blog Posts
|
I've mentioned this before, but it's grown a bit since then. If you read my blog directly (rather than through a planet aggregator or a blog feed reader), then you will have seen a row of small icons at the bottom of each post. |
These small iconic links make it easy to bookmark, tag or share that post on some of the social bookmarking websites. They are a bit like standards. There are so many to choose from. They also make a nice little blog post seperator as well. Yesterday I added in a few others.
For Roller users, you can find a copy of my _day template file here. It's probably not a drop in replacement with yours. Please check before you overwrite it. Even better, take a backup of your old one first, in case you have to restore it. It should be clear where which section you will need.
Blog users who use other blogging systems should be able to use something
similar. You will need to replace all occurances of
$absBaseURL$entry.permaLink with whatever generates the
unique permalink (URL) for that post and $entry.title is
the unique title for that post.
I haven't extensively tested all of these links. If you find any problems, please let me know and I'll try to fix them up.

Me? I do it as a service for others (the bookmarking icons). I doubt that any of these posts of mine will ever me /.'ed or dugg, but you never know.
