by Jay Meattle at 4pm, April 23rd, 2009 / 
E-mail this post »We pushed out Shareaholic v1.7 this afternoon! You can get the latest version of Shareaholic from here, or you if you already have Shareaholic installed, just wait for Firefox to automatically notify you of the update.
If you use the NoScript Firefox Add-on, make sure you read this.
If you have any suggestions whatsoever, please do let us know. We’d love your feedback.
What’s new:
- You asked for it, you got it :) v1.7 adds support for:
Amazon Wishlist
Diigo
Evernote
Google Notebook
LinkedIn
Posterous
Sphinn
Techmeme Tip
Tr.im
- We’re big fans of this: We’ve added the option to turn on the Shareaholic button in the URL bar right next to the orange RSS icon. We feel that this is a very natural place for the icon to live within the browser. It is turned off by default, one can turn it on from Shareaholic’s option menu.
- We can now toggle the main nav menu button on/off from the option menu. You have complete control.
- All services in the services drop down have keyboard shortcuts associated with them now.
- Cleaned up Options menu – services are now categorized to make them easier to go through
- Fixed edge case issues with Gmail, Google Bookmarks
- Updates to Twine, Soup.io, Twitter code
- Misc. performance tweaks
p.s. If you use Shareaholic, please consider posting a short review here – thanks so much!

Hi Jay,
Just to clarify my doubts, I am currently using onlywire.com which already has some of the social networking sites as shareaholic. what do you recommend?
I heard that bookmarking the same site on some of these networking site will have it banned.

Lian,
Shareaholic is designed to work with services like Facebook, etc as they intended ie. we do not change the original user experience. Shareaholic also does not submit the same link to multiple sites – unless you do so.
I haven’t heard of cases of people getting banned for submitting the same link to multiple sites, but it is possible if you’re submitting spam-y links, or submitting links way too often. If you play fair, I don’t think it’s going to be an issue.
Hope this answers your question!
