Do people actually use this ? Do you use it ? I mean...Do you share threads/articles when you read them ?

[Jesse]

Yeah people do use them on facebook I know. I just added the feature to clipstash.com but I'm going to remove it....I highly doubt visitors will use it on that kind of site lol I just wanted to see how this addthis.com thing worked

Well if the content of your site is interesting these users they will diffinetly add your site or post to social bookmark sites.

So I was just checking referrs and I had a small AddThis link up for a few hours and I noticed a little facebook.com traffic. I'm putting it back up

Are you serious. Do katz really ban sites that use this. Can you name the site? I highly doubt that this mod was the reason it was banned as the mod uses javascript. Hundreds of sites that submit to katz use this.
I don't think many people use it but I've it added as the odd one does.

Here's an example of the generated code button on my site and a little tip for beginners.

<a class="addthis_button" href="http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250&amp;pub=mrhappy"><img src="Files/Design/bookmark.png" width="196" height="39" alt="Bookmark and Share LinkzBot Universal Link Checker" style="border:0"/></a><script type="text/javascript" src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js#pub=mrhappy"></script>
<!-- AddThis Button END --> 

If you want to customize the button or use your own instead of the ugly default ones you can change this part.

<img src="images/path-to-image/your-image.png" width="200" height="50" alt="Bookmark and Share You Site Name" style="border:0"/> 

Experienced Webmasters don't say it's obvious as 99% of sites are using the default images.

I know some larger sites (non katz) (more legal) that use this and it works.
