A few weeks ago i published “Add An Awesome Fixed Position Slide Open Heart Bookmarking Gadget To Blogger“. In this post we have the same social bookmarking gadget but this time it will not be shaped as a heart but instead an ovel egg shape. The share egg sits in the bottom corner of your blog and remains fixed as the reader scrolls the page. On hover the egg slides open to reveal bookmarking buttons for your readers to share posts on Facebook, Twitter, Google +, Blogger, LinkedIn, Stumble Upon, Email and the Share This Icon Offers hundreds more bookmarking choices. This is a great gadget to get the attention of your readers and have them bookmarking your posts. I have the tutorial to add the gadget to your Blogger blog below but first check out the screenshot and live demo.
