I've been using this for a year now and it's been wonderful. So easy to send stuff to my Gmail, SU or Twitter. But I hadn't noticed the FF icon until my reinstall today. You click on your items hit the Shareaholic link for FF and it brings up the bookmarklet for you. Now, all it needs is a post to blog and Social Median button and I'll be good to go.

If it had Evernote I might be interested... does it bring up tags for services that have tags?
- Lindsay is in 20-ten
Chris what does Firefox have to do with anything? EDIT...Ah, I see it's a FF plugin. Yeah, I'm not on Firefox.
- Admiral Anika
Lindsay, it's a way to post/share a link someplace. It's not cluttered with tags or anything. So say I want to share your comment to Twitter. I just click on it or highlight it and have this send it to Twitter.

One button replaces multiple bookmarklets. I like it very much.

The fact that it's an add-on kills it for me. Why can't it be a bookmarklet? I never understood that.
- Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah
Rah, yep. Shareaholic needs a bookmarklet. ShareThis has and supports FriendFeed. ShareThis is the better alternative for Chrome users anyway.
- Kol Tregaskes
Saying that, I use Shareaholic on Firefox and have done for ages.
- Kol Tregaskes
agree with Rahsheen, should be a bookmarklet instead of an addon. I refuse to go back to firefox now. Thanks for the tip Kol Tregaskes, regarding ShareThis - will check it out as a chrome user
- Peter Efland
I've been using it for several months now. So glad to see Friendfeed added.

i am NOWHERE without Shareaholic. and so far it has given me nary an issue.

Kol - was it a joke regarding Chrome? Got to bookmarklet in Chrome, but absolutely nada happens when I try to use it.
- Peter Efland
Peter, yep I had the same problem. Contacted the devs and eventually they worked it out, change the URL to: javascript:var%20e=document.createElement('script');e.setAttribute('language','javascript');e.setAttribute('src','http://w.sharethis.com/button...);
- Kol Tregaskes
oh, cool. thanks Kol, will see if I can get it sorted out
- Peter Efland
Just downloaded. I will have to report back on how it is after a few days.

using it for two weeks and really appreciate it, would miss it.
- Tobias W.
I started using it about a week ago, and I am slowly doing away with my bookmarklets.
- Seth Greenblatt
Odd. I have been using this to post to FF for quite some time. I like it.
- Mathew A. Koeneker
if @shareaholic added URL shortening then all of my bookmarklets would be history
- Keith - @tsudo
tsudohnimh, i have bit.ly in my Shareaholic. Go to Customize and add it.
- Admiral Anika
nice. TY anika. Didn't notice that before.
- Keith - @tsudo
Corvida: I use folder :P And I still can add 3-5 bookmarks into toolbar, but I don't need to (yet)
- Kristian Salonen
My bookmark toolbar is exclusively for bookmarklets, so this type of stuff doesn't really suite me.
- Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah
How does an add-on get nearly 500,000 downloads and not a single star or review?
- Jack (a.k.a. Jeber)
Jack: What? There's reviews (73 totally) and star ratings.
- Kristian Salonen
Aha, sorry. I was looking at the wrong thing. I'm old...I do that a lot. ;)
- Jack (a.k.a. Jeber)
The bookmarklet is coming along nicely btw. ;-)
- Kol Tregaskes
Since I'm forced to use Chrome (yuck) now, I would LOVE a bookmarklet for Shareaholic. My toolbar looks so messy with all that stuff up there.
