Glad to see you did a video on this Gideon! These “share” buttons (whether via Twitter, Facebook or Digg) are all about making it easy to pass along great content. This is a HUGE design element that all bloggers/content creators need to focus on (ie. enabling their fan base to pass along their great content.)

Hey Dan

Great to hear from you again!

You are very right – these share buttons are a really great way of making it simple and easy for others to spread the word. I particularly like the ReTweet button because there are so many people on twitter now, compared to all the other social networks.

Talk soon!

Gideon,
I loved your information about re-tweet button plugin. It was great…
Do you know similar plugin for the date stamp for the post in wordpress just like Yaro is using in his blog?

Hey Prakash

Uhm…

I think Yaro got that custom made for him for this theme.

But I think there are some other themes that will have it as part of it’s design as well.

I have not seen any plugins for it – have you done a Google search on it yet?

Gideon
