Thanks so much for putting these posts out there, I’ve really enjoyed them. I involved in custodial and facility manangement, if you had some more articles on those topics I would read those too. Also any data or thoughts on governments using solar..

Maybe the sharing toolbar could have a “More” button/icon that goes to one of those third-party sharing tools with dozens of places to share to.

Thanks Bryan – we are actually using one of those plug-ins. We’ll look into your idea – I’ve seen that before. Although what’s interesting on the web is actually most sites are actually showing fewer sharing options as they are finding more choice equals less action (sites like mic.com just have 1 huge “share on FB”). We added printing as lots of folks have requested as they print articles into meetings & actually email is still a popular technique for sharing work content.
