Awesome work guys, I’m trying it out now

Will leave another comment once ive tested it

Everything on the first page that says it hadn’t been submitted to Stumble already has been submitted.

Seems like the same problem with reddit submissions aswell

The digg part on reddit works fine though

This is the best social tool I’ve seen! I’ve been testing it out and it works real well…I can totally build my social networks with this!

I wonder what is coming next from the 97thfloor labs. This tool is really sick. It is saving me so much freaking time!

Finally, a useful, quick social media tool! I love it.

Give ability to only launch each window in a new tab instead of a new window

Also having the ability to submit from here would be great also. Ex. I visit a page and notice that Delicious has 100 bookmarks but it has not been submitted to DIGG. Having the ability to publish the information would be great.

Very nice, but I never install a firefox add-on without checking the code. Can you tellme the purpose of this snippet of code in startup.js?

req.open(
‘GET’,
‘http://www.97thfloor.com/social-media-for-firefox/put.php’ +
“?url=” + encodeURIComponent(content.document.location) +
query,
true
);

Can’t install on Mac, comes up with an error

Can’t install it on FF 1.5 WinXP: Invalid file hash

I love it!

I have posted a review on my blog!
http://zia.blogspot.com/2007/09/excellent-social-media-extention-for.html

By the way, I do not know if it is a bug but del.icio.us icon on the status bar does not appear to be active?

Uh, perhaps it is my faulty English, but I fail to see the value of this tool?

If even a hundred people download and use it then there shall shortly be no fish in the ocean.

Also, in what way does this increase the utility of the social networking sites?

Great tool guys. Thanks for making it public.

This is awesome extention. its going to ssve me so much time everyday

It looks like the chrome integration of the extension breaks popups on a lot of sites.

Leave a comment on any blogspot.com blog to see how the popup breaks.

Great Work, I will give it a go!

Came across the digg and decided to download it. I mus say that the tool is a time saver! I am always looking to increase my social media accounts and this tool is making that process very easy to check what urls are in the big social sites. thanks 97th.

I have this running on a mac. But I can’t figure out how to set this to automatic.

Right click on Manual and it will give you the option.

There is no right clicking with my mac mouse.

I only use Digg and SU… Can we have the option to only show networks I actually use versus all of them? (Save space)

You forgot to add the feature that lets people actually submit something original.

That’s the killer feature, not Social Media scraping.

That’s the reason I don’t use Digg but use StumbleUpon, Clipmarks and the official Yahoo! del.icio.us Add-On — because there’s a tool to add stuff right from the web page I’m on.

Do that and then you’ve got yourselves a killer Add-On.

Right now, all you’ve got is something that let’s people fast-track Social Networking.

The kind of thing comment spammers, link-baiters and gamers will luv…

Hi Chris and thanks for the prompt response!

Now you have me interested. But I’m still concerned about the misuse of something like this.

Is that something you’ve given any thought to?

I know there’s software that can be bought to auto-submit to the the Social Media websites, which sort of leaves me a little torn, in terms of how I feel towards such things.

“Maybe I am giving people too much credit,…”

Maybe, but I can’t quite think of a way around the misuse issue right now.

But that’s more an artifact of the fundamental weakness of Social Media — poor personal profile management and a lack of accountability.

To limit the scope of an idea because of the potential bad it might create is to limit the scope of the good it might bring through with it, also…

This article has very useful information, it will be helpful for many. Actually one of my friends first read this article and asked me to visit this page. It’s really amazing to read this description of this article. Thank you so much for your help and for your efforts.

Thanks,

Hey guys, nice tool. I just wanted to report however that Del.icio.us isn’t working. At least not for me, and it’s been that way for quiet quite a while. It just endlessly tries to fetch the number, just never does.

I do have the delicious add-on so perhaps it conflicts with yours somehow?

[…] 1. Importance of blogging - The question I get asked while being here at this conference is; Why Blog? You do not want to make the mistake of setting up a blog for setting up a blogs sake. A blog can increase the health of your site, increase (what I like to call) your Google saturation (the more pages you have indexed the better, and help out rankings and trust if done right. If you are not willing to put the time into what it takes to run a successful, well thought out blog it really is going to do nothing for you but waste time. When you set up your blog correctly (and make it search engine friendly) it gives you the opportunity to be found and ranked for more long tail key phrases, such as “social media for Firefox” in this example - http://www.97thfloor.com/blog/announcing-new-tool-social-media-for-firefox-extension/ […]

this is a promising tool - what a great idea. for some reason, though, the reddit and delicious tools aren’t pulling in accurately. They read at zero when there are many voters.

Mediamonster,

Yeah Reddit currently changed somethings we need to tweak, and Del.icio.us has the worst API known to man and has been a pain.

Most of the time if you click on it, it will open up and show the votes, but we are working on the bug.

what about Mixx?

It fails to install on FF3 Beta3,

Also does the extension allow voting down on reddit?

Any plans to make it compatible with Firefox 3?

Please make this thing compatible with firefox 3! I just downloaded the new browser today and it doesn’t work with the social media extension, which is the most useful extension I have. The extension rocks - keep up the good work.
