Shareaholic – best ever social bookmarking extension

by Patrick Altoft on January 21, 2008

Yesterday I installed Shareaholic and it is by far the best bookmarking solution I’ve used.

A few months ago I used to use the smart Digg button but it won’t open pages in a new window so there is no easy way to copy the title into your Digg submission. Shareaholic opens in a new tab so it doesn’t have the same problem.

Hey Patrick,

Try using Digg This. It adds a right click button which allows you to submit through a new window while keeping the story window open.

That is a nice plug-in. Beats what I was using before of which I won’t mention its name. Thanks for pointing it out.

Thanks for the great review of the plugin. I have something else to add with my stumbleupon.

Hey Patrick,

thanks for the tip, that is a great tool, it just would be great if they would offer more services. Then it would be perfect.

Currently I’m using Socialmarker, http://www.socialmarker.com/
Which is great and offers a lot services to submit. It’s very easy to use.

I like the usability of Shareaholic more, since it’s opening in a new tab and Socialmarker opens in one frame. But Socialmarker already fills out everything for you automatically and you can drag and drop fields at the bottom of the page to a specific field. You might like to try it out. If Socialmarker would open the pages in different tabs, it would be a wonderful tool.
