Add link building links your blogger posts
Tonight I finally got around to adding various links to the bottom of my posts, the "Share this post" links you see on the bottom of various blogs.
As you might tell from the template, I use blogger as my blogging software (might switch soon)
The HTML for the links is below, the first block is for the new blogger templates which use the new data format. For example, data:post.url is the URL of the post, while data:post.title is the title.
<!-- Share this post code - Ben Hall - Blog.BenHall.me.uk -->
<b>Share this post: </b>
<a expr:href='"mailto:?body=Thought you might like this: " + data:post.url + "&subject=" + data:post.title'>Email It!</a> |
<a expr:href='"http://del.icio.us/post?url=" + data:post.url + "&title=" + data:post.title' target='_blank'>Bookmark It!</a> |
<a expr:href='"http://www.digg.com/submit?url=" + data:post.url + "&phase=2"' target='_blank'>Digg It!</a> |
<a expr:href='"http://reddit.com/submit?url=" + data:post.url + "&title=" + data:post.title' target='_blank'>Reddit It!</a> |
<a expr:href='"http://www.dotnetkicks.com/kick/?url=" + data:post.url + "&title=" + data:post.title' target='_blank'>Kick It!</a> |
<a expr:href='"https://favorites.live.com/quickadd.aspx?marklet=1&mkt=en-us&url=" + data:post.url + "&title=" + data:post.title + "&top=1"' target='_blank'>Live It!</a><br />
If your still using the old blogger templates, then the format to access information about the post is sightly different.

Just place the code in your template where you want the links to appear. Hope this helps!

I found this to work:
The &Subject= should be be replaced by:
&Subject=
