I recently received an e-mail from a friend who had been reading The Walrus today and wanted me to check out an article she had read. She copied and pasted the link into the message window (we were on msn) in order that I could take a look at it. Once I clicked on the link, I was not taken to the article but was instead taken to The Walrus’s homepage, and it had opened in the same window (don’t you hate that?!). I decided to do some investigating; there had to be an easier way for me to view the article without all this copying and pasting. I searched around, and lo and behold, a share this link!
The concept of share this really couldn’t be simpler or more easy to use. You come across an article that you’d like to share. You simply click on the “share this” link and you will be given the option of sharing the article dozens and dozens of ways. You can share it the old-fashioned way (e-mail), through social networking sites like Facebook and Myspace, or through other (perhaps less heard of mediums?) such as Reddit or Newsvine.
The share option makes sending content across the web to a friend or family member as easy as possible. No more copy and pasting links or searching through google. The share option makes content literally available at your fingertips!
