How to add Floating Social Media Sharing Buttons ?

I have included Facebook Share, Retweet, StumbleUpon, Google Buzz, Digg This and Google +1 (plus one) buttons in the bar. Each of them comes with a live counter. The corners of Facebook Share button and counter are rounded to blend with the rest of the buttons (doesn’t work in Internet Explorer though). You can add more social bookmarking or sharing buttons later if you wish.

I. Adding the buttons

• Adding to Blogger
  1. Go to Design > Page Elements.
  2. Click Add A Gadget.
  3. In Add A Gadget window, select HTML/Javascript .
  4. Copy the code below and paste it inside the content box.
  5. Save the gadget.
  6. Drag the gadget and reposition it under Blog Posts gadget.
  7. Click Save button (top right hand corner).
• Adding to WordPress
  1. Go to Dashboard > Appearance > Widgets > Available Widgets.
  2. Drag Text widget into a sidebar.
  3. Paste in the code.
  4. Save.

Updates
Oct 2011: Add instructions for WordPress.
July 2011: Remove Google Buzz button. Who needs Buzz when you have Google +1?
July 2010: Add Digg This button.
June 2011: Add Google +1 button.

II. Customizing

1. Vertical alignment
   Change the value of bottom in code line 3. The code positions the button relative to the bottom of your browser window. To fix the distance even when window is resized, specify the value in px (pixels) instead of %.
2. Horizontal alignment
   Change the value of margin-left in code line 3. Negative value pushes the button to the left of the main blog column, positive value pushes it to the right.
   To position the button relative to the left or right edge of browser window, replace the margin-left with left (as in left:10px;) or right (as in right:10px;) respectively.
3. Replacing and removing buttons
   You can replace existing buttons with your own. Each button is represented by this code:
   
   <div class='sbutton'>

   BUTTON CODE

   </div>

   To replace the button, simply replace the button code with the new code.
   To remove the button, delete the whole div.

Update (for Blogger): If somehow your Google +1 button doesn’t appear despite other buttons appear successfully, try this workaround:

1. Go to Design > Edit HTML and find this line:
   <body expr:class='&quot;loading&quot; + data:blog.mobileClass'>
   or
   <body>
2. Copy the code in step I.5 and paste it right below the line.
3. Replace the margin-left:-71px; in code line 3 with left:10px;.
4. Preview before saving.

Enjoy!
