  2. yep, kinda. There is a 'su' at the bottom that, upon clicking on it, offers to share on Facebook and one or two other places.

  3. Ah, thanks, you two. I should have been clearer. That "SU" is the Stumble Upon link, which I put up a few months ago.

    Blogger says it has a new feature, called "share buttons," which is a toolbar-like graphic that contains a row of sharing buttons for Facebook, Twitter, etc. ("Share this post on Facebook!")

    I tried to install the feature Blogger's way, but those buttons aren't visible. Other people may be having the same difficulty, which means Blogger will eventually straighten out the problem and give its users a feature that other bloggers, on other blogging platforms, have already had for a while.

  4. I always wondered what that SU was for...

  5. Yeah, I enabled them "share buttons" on my own blogspot site - and as of right now, nothing. Nada. Zilch. Zip.

  6. I never could get Blogger's share function to work, so I just used "Add This" and their buttons - they do the same thing:
