What does this plugin actually do?This plugin provides two valuable services for your CPG:
First, it gives your users the ability to easily share your CPG pages with over 50 different social bookmarking websites and services, including del.icio.us, Technorati, digg.com, Myspace, AIM, furl, and Blogger, just to name a few.
Second, it gives your CPG the ability to produce cut and paste linking codes so your visitors can post thumbnail and text links to your pages all over the web.
All the links are permanent URLs, of course. This is absolutely the best promotional plugin available for CPG.
I actually built a new site (TagBlitz.com) primarily as a backend for this plugin (plus variations for other scripts and platforms), so that the plugin itself would remain lightweight, while still being able to provide an incredible amount of functionality. Tha site, by the way, will be around for a very long time, so you don't have to worry about it disappearing on you. (And even if it did, you could simply uninstall the plugin with one click.)
As for the TagBlitz site itself, it has a simple mission statement right on the site's front page:
"No cost, no gimmick, no spyware, no downloads, no signup, no hassle. Just a really good idea."
This plugin is completely "plug and play", no modification required, and uses the CPG Plugin API.
