Recently, I have decided to add a DotNetKicks button to my blog entries for BlogEngine .NET. The original implementation can be found here. Currrently, I am using the social bookmarking extension. What I have done is to simply update the social bookmarking extension to include the DotNetKicks button. One of the downside of implementing this button is that for the button to show up i your post, you will need to include a [kickit] token so that HTML for the button will be included for your post.

Since I'm too lazy to go through all my post and do this, I've modified the social bookmarks extension to include the button automatically. The other thins I've done is to open another window when the button is clicked and to only show the bookmark buttons when displaying the full post. This way you don't get a bunch of distracting shiny and colourful buttons when displaying your summary list of posts.

And here is the updated SocialBookmarks.cs, SocialBookmarks.cs (13.72 kb)

If you're wondering what to do with the above file, you will need to have a read at the guide here that tells you how to install the original social bookmark extension.

Update: I have further enhanced the Social Bookmark extension to include twitThis. Details can be found in this other blog entry.
