Social News
This feature allows you to share posts online with a friend. We’ve made it easy for you by adding buttons at the bottom of each article which allow you to share the story with friends and community sites all over the web.
These sites – commonly called ’social bookmark’ or ’social news’ sites – have large communities of web users who share interesting, useful and fun things on the web.
These buttons will automatically add the address of the story you like to one of these sites, letting you share the stories you like best.
You’ll need to register for each of these sites – they’re all free and easy to use – and then you can store, recommend and search for the websites and stories that interest you.
A description of the different sites:
del.icio.us is one of the most popular social bookmarking sites. It allows you to keep track of what you read online, but also to share those bookmarks with other users, letting others find the stories you like. You can add short descriptions and keyword tags to each article you bookmark – making it easier for you to find them again, for others to find them, and for you to find other websites that might interest you!
Digg is another of the most popular community news sites on the web. Users add articles to it – as you’ll be doing when you click the button – and every user who then reads and likes that article can vote for it (’digg’ it). The most voted for articles then climb up the rankings of the most popular articles on the site.
Reddit is a social bookmarking website where users can post links to content on the web. Other users may then vote the posted links up or down, causing them to appear more or less prominently on the reddit home page.
Newsvine is a website consisting of community-driven news stories and opinions. Users write articles and save links to external content, vote, comment and chat on article pages created by both users and by journalists
Fark is a community website allowing users to comment on a daily batch of news articles and other items from various websites. Links are submitted by Fark members, which are then approved for posting on the main page by administrators.
Yahoo! Bookmarks allows users to import bookmarks and organize them into folders.
