Wordpress Shareomatic! plugin
WordPress users can install the WordPress plugin. This will give you a link under each blog entry that looks like this:
Share with Shareomatic! Share with Shareomatic!
Now, isn't that a lot cleaner than the slew of bookmarking icons you see everywhere these days!
blogspot.com
If you have a blog on blogspot.com, this is how you add Shareomatic! to your site:
  1. In your template, search for the line <data:post.body/>. It usually looks something like this:
    <div class='post-body entry-content'>
      <p><data:post.body/></p>
      <div style='clear: both;'/>
    </div>
  2. Add <a expr:href='"http://www.shareomatic.com/" + data: post.url'>Share with Shareomatic!</a> to the line after that one. This will give you
    <div class='post-body entry-content'>
      <p><data:post.body/></p>
      <a expr:href='"http://www.shareomatic.com/" + data: post.url'>Share with Shareomatic!</a>
      <div style='clear: both;'/>
    </div>
  3. There is no step three!
