I noticed that some blogs have started adding little buttons and links to their posts enabling the reader to submit the story to del.icio.us or Digg with one easy click.
(As an aside, now that I’m, actually reading Digg, I doubt that this is a good idea. Oh well.)
I decided I wanted to have a shot at Internet stardom, and that customized submit links for each and every post was the way to achieve it. To this end, I coded the submit plugin.
This plugin constructs submission URLs based on the current story’s
title and permalink, and exposes them in variables such as
$submit::delicious that can be used to generate links and buttons.
It’s literally a 10-minute hack, feel free to download it and improve it.
