Courtesy of the fine folks at TypePad, my blogging platform, I have added some new features to the blog. Given that they are not large widgets, I thought a heads up was in order.
As shown in the picture below, under my byline there are now two new buttons in addition to "Share This". "Tweet This" allows you to directly post to Twitter the title and http:// address of any post you like (or don't like) with comment. "Favorite" is admittedly self-explanatory but it gives me and anybody who has a TypePad profile additional information on the popularity of the post. (Share This is a also a great button because it allows readers to easily share posts on FaceBook, Stumbleupon, email and seven other services.)
One last site note, especially for my fellow bloggers. The "You Might Also Like this" section shows Sophisticated Finance posts related to the post being read. YMAL generates approximately 15 percent of my page views. It's been on the site for awhile, but I just wanted to recommend it to fellow bloggers.
