Best 'Social Stripe' examples?

I'm looking for your best examples of a 'social stripe' that encourages users to bookmark, Tweet, Email, Delicious etc. (Above is from Mashable.) - AJ Kohn
This looks quite nice. Does Google's "Share" still exist? - Mitch
@Mitch - If you're referring to Google Shared Stuff, that was discontinued last month, sadly. - Tyson Key
I like this. Any chance there is a WordPress plug in that does it this way for you? - Thomas Hawk
@Thomas: Socialable has something but it's tiny and not nearly as clean, yet prominent. I'm looking for other sites with a good 'stripe' - blogs or content - so I can create one for a major health site. [edit] Check my blog for Sociable presentation http://www.blindfiveyearold.com - AJ Kohn
Tyson - Yeah that's the one. Did you use it much? - Mitch
@Mitch - I only ever bookmarked about 7 items with it, before they discontinued it. I think they're all archived in FriendFeed, though. - Tyson Key
I don't know why Google launched such a thing, to be perfectly honest. - Mitch
Amusingly, they're reckoning that piping items through Google Reader, or marking videos as favourites on YouTube are suitable alternatives... Wonders never cease. - Tyson Key
Their toolbar for letting you share any item in Google Reader, whether you're subscribed to the feed or not, is genius though. - Mitch
*bump* Give me your best social stripes from around the web (before the new FriendFeed UI comes out!) - AJ Kohn
