I had question, I tried looking through the older posts, but was unable to find what I was looking for. Maybe I am not calling it by the correct lingo?? Anyone know of any good plugins for Wordpress to have the Social Icons after each post and also have the twitter feed in the right side bar on my site?
I had one on my site a few weeks back before I had the malware issue and I cant remember the name of it. It seemed pretty reliable.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Christopher

I like GetSocial. It shows up beside each post with social networking buttons.
I used to use Shareaholic which comes up at the bottom of each post but they kept updating the freakin plugin every week and I got real sick of that.

I've been using the Socialize plugin and I like it so far. There are several options out there for something like this. It mostly comes down to personal preference though. As long as you have some buttons to easily bookmark your pages, you should be fine.

I have been searching for the best plugin myself. I am currently using Digg Digg, which is OK. I think I tried using Jetpack, but didn't like that the twitter button didn't include my username when others tweeted a post. I want to know who is out there helping me out. I have been waiting for sexybookmarks to come back.

It's not a plugin, but I'd recommend using AddThis.com or ShareThis.com. I use addthis myself. You'll have to cut and paste the code into a text widget. It offers more customization than the plugins (including adding twitter username to tweets) and can integrate social tracking with google analytics. Plus it's one less plugin to bother with.

I use SexyBookmarks for the sharing buttons below my posts – I know they took down the plugin for now until they fix some stuff but it's always worked perfectly for me so I'm still using it. I use Rimons Twitter Widget for my twitter plugin on the sidebar. It does what I want so I'm happy with it.

Just wanted to say, if any of you want to try Sexy Bookmarks, I have the zip file saved on my computer. I can email it to you for upload to your site.

I use Digg Digg on most of my sites, but Sexy Bookmarks gets points for including Fwisp in their options ;)

I've used both Digg Digg and Sexy Bookmarks. Both of them work well in my opinion, but if you can do it with code, that's probably the way to go.
