My Favorite Web Buttons
The Most Useful Free Web Buttons What are Web buttons?
Web buttons are basically tiny software programs that add even more functionality to your browser toolbar. Many popular Web sites are creating buttons for many different things: sharing content, adding tags, etc. Here are a few of the best free Web buttons that I use on a daily basis.
Free Web Buttons
- Reddit Buttons: Instantly share your content with the Reddit social bookmarking community.
- Yahoo Save To My Web: All you need to do with this one is drag and drop the link to your browser toolbar, and voila! you can start saving sites you like to your own personal Yahoo My Web.
- Digg This: This button allows you to Digg from any website; just drag and drop the link to your browser toolbar.
- del.icio.us Buttons: You have two button options available here; you can post the page you're looking at to del.icio.us, or you can quickly view your cache of del.icio.us bookmarks.
- Sub With Bloglines Button: Bloglines is hands-down my favorite RSS feed reader. Whenever I come across an interesting site that I would like to keep track of via RSS, I just click on my handy dandy Bloglines Sub Button and it's added to my list of sites.
- Technorati Buttons: I add good stuff to my Technorati favorites by one click of a button. And speaking of Technorati...
- Technorati Tag Generator: If you have a blog, and would like to use tags to make it more searchable in Technorati, just drag and drop this button link to your browser toolbar. When you click on it, you'll be prompted to write in tags, and the button will generate HTML coding for you to insert into your blog post. Pretty handy little button.
- del.icio.us Randomizer: This button is probably not as useful as some of the other ones I've posted here, but it's just so much FUN. Once you plop this button on your toolbar and start clicking away, you'll be taken to random sites selected by other del.icio.us users. Warning - not all of these are safe for work or younger viewers.
