Thanks for that data point. - Brad Nickel

Pardon me in advance for slightly digressing: doesn't it frustrate you that your posts end up being shared/read/commented elsewhere? Wouldn't it be only fair (and I think that I've seen this on a site, once) that on whichever social sites your posts (like others' for that matter) are commented yours, this blog, could benefit and at least get a carbon copy of it? - lelapin from FriendFeed MT Plugin

I read this differently. This is just how people share _using the widget_ and as such it is no surprise that email and facebook come first. Both - email especially and facebook to a certain degree - are a pain to share otherwhise, while sharing of links on digg / delicious / friendfeed and alike are 'easy'. Have a look at your own browser / bookmark list - i assume you do have an extension for delicious installed, as well as stumble upon, likely for digg. At least you have a bookmark for sharing in these often used services with more functionality. Now, do you have a email mail bookmarklet or a facebook share bookmarklet? I doubt it. Btw if anyone has a good suggestion for a good email this tool I'd appreciate that. ;) - Nicole Simon from FriendFeed MT Plugin

Unfortunately, social bookmarking via Facebook keeps everything in a closed network. It's not exactly social if only people inside Facebook can access these links. - Glenn Batuyong from twhirl

The continued popularity of email simply illustrates that people still don't take an active role in decreasing less selective use of email. Stuff you don't need emailed to you still gets emailed to you, and we are still emailing stuff that doen't need immediate attention. Facebook as number 2 makes sense, as most people have more contacts on Facebook then the other services. I think this just builds a better case for Friendfeed, which will pull inn all your junk, which you can then post to facebook with friendfeed - Chad Albert from FriendFeed MT Plugin
