I just saw the addthis.com widget ... and it looks like a great all-in-one space-saving widget that can post to a huge number of social bookmarks like digg and del.icio.us. Has anyone here used it successfully? Do you recommend it? Have you used their RSS feed tool?

If you are looking at the addthis widget, also take a look at madkast.com [madkast.com]

SoCalGreg, no doubt I really think the addthis.com widget is useful to save time. But the real killer is you yourself. You still need to interact with other people on the bookmarking sites to reap the benefits. Cheers:)

I am currently using it on thebigwaveblog.com [thebigwaveblog.com] Its a great all-in-one tool for the major social media/bookmarking sites. You can customize it to the sites you want to target most.

Why do you say this?
If your answer is like "It allows you to..." ohh then ....
Is anyone clicking it? Ask yourself Do you need "great all-in-one" tool that no one's using...

Aw come on! He's responding to the original poster with what was asked of him. If he thinks it's great what do you care? People EVERY DAY erect a new website in anticipation of traffic. I think it's smart to start with "making it easy" rather than backtracking later. Plus. I rather enjoy seeing optimism flourish in the area of new websites. [I assume your site, Jax, is new because you have no PR.]

I agree with Dearie. You have to participate in the social arena else the ADD THIS or even any standalone "social bookmark me" may be a waste of time...unless we're speaking of delicious. [I say this because my delicious is my delicious and i stay pretty much to myself there.]

I haven't used it and I'm not sure that I'd find it useful personally.

I use the addthis widget to encourage folks to add items to their favorites or bookmark services. I agree though the best way to encourage visits and discussions is by participation on social sites.
