One of the social media tools I get the most use out of yet see the fewest people adopting is social bookmarking. For the purposes of this post, I’m going to refer to Delicious.com quite a bit. Not only is it my social bookmarking mechanism of choice, but it is the one utility essentially geared for just that — bookmarking. Not voting, or front page-getting or popularity contests. Delicious is about a place to store your favorite sites and share them with your friends along that network if you choose.
My friend Brendan Picha from Squareoak has developed a new social bookmarking/social news tool to help submit your favorite stuff to multiple sites. It’s in beta and worth giving a try at PostToaster.com.
This isn’t a new concept. I’ve been using SocialMarker.com for quite some time now but it hasn’t been quick enough in adding relevant new sites (like Mixx where I learned of Brendan’s new thing). In order to submit to more than my standard array of Digg, StumbleUpon, Reddit, Faves and del.icio.us, I have to submit separately for Mixx and Sphinn. As such, my Mixx and Sphinn submissions are few and far between.
