Share To Social Networks Using Browser Bookmarks

10 Nov 2013

I’ve tried many ways to easily share items from my browser to any of the social networks I’m using. Addons came close to working fine but I always worry (maybe unreasonably) about their load on the browser.

Then, I came across bookmarks (or bookmarklets) via a Scott Hanselman’s post and I found a winner.

Here are the code snippets for how to share to some of the popular social networks. Simply create a bookmark and provide its location to be the code snippet:

Twitter

javascript:(function(){window.twttr=window.twttr||{};var%20D=550,A=450,C=screen.height,B=screen.width,H=Math.round((B/2)-(D/2)),G=0,F=document,E;if(C>A){G=Math.round((C/2)-(A/2))}window.twttr.shareWin=window.open('http://twitter.com/share','','left='+H+',top='+G+',width='+D+',height='+A+',personalbar=0,toolbar=0,scrollbars=1,resizable=1');E=F.createElement('script');E.src='http://platform.twitter.com/bookmarklets/share.js?v=1';F.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(E)}());
