    Plugin that adds social bookmarking links after each post? I've been looking for a good one that also has the option to include an image that says something like "Subscribe to my RSS feed" at the end of the post as well?

    Thanks in advance.

    I use one called "Sociable" for wordpress. Sorry, I don't have the link...just Google , "wordpress plug in, sociable".

    You can change the tag to any phrase you want (I have chosen to leave mine blank)...see example in my blog if this is what you are talking about.

    It has just about every bookmarking site/service there is.

    I think this is the plugin, correct? http://push.cx/sociable

    Is there one that also includes a share on facebook link?

    BTW hmansfield just read an article on your blog, interesting read!

    There are numerous plugins for this as mentioned above, another is Gregarious. It has several different bookmarking tools incorporated into it like Digg, and Share This, and I think an option to subscribe to the feed as well.... it is pretty customizable. It has been a little finicky on some hosting accounts and themes with the latest version of WP though.

    As far as the "add to face book" option...I have that through Feed Burner. It's called FEED FLARE.
    It has many additions that you can add to the bottom of a post or page like, "Stumble this", "Email the author", "Share on Face Book" , "E mail this", "Subscribe to comments" and others.

    thanks for the read, by the way :)

    Ok, I'll see if I can try out some of these. I assumed there were a ton, but that's mainly why I wanted to see what everyone else uses so I could then check them out and see how they work.

    Thanks, if anyone else has good ones that work for them feel free to let me know :D

    Share This plugin:

    See it in action at http://blog.psychlinks.ca - scroll to end of any post - green icon with Share This next to it. Click on it and a small popup with selected bookmarking sites appears.

    On my site, there's a small bug with the particular WordPress theme I'm using, where the hover color is white on white - working on trying to fix that. This isn't an issue with other themes I've tried.

    Me heard of just 13 of them.. and i use just 6 of them.
    So any of the plugins would be fine for me as both have the bookmarking links which i use :)
