One of the tools for bookmarks many users in the net use is ShareThis.

ShareThis is very handy, and it shows up on the page as a simple icon, but when clicked, it allows users to send the related materials (content/article/news) to MySpace, Digg, Facebook or any related social applications.

ShareThis makes a widget that any continent publisher can use on his or her sites. It helps many users get an easy way to share their content on the Web through their social networks via e-mail, phone or text messages. Users can also save ShareThis profiles, so that no matter where on the Net they go, if the site uses ShareThis, their preferences and their address books copy over. Where ShareThis becomes more than just a fancy widget, it edges into possible business viability that relies in its collection and treatment of data about its users’ activities.

ShareThis makes a very useful service that might shelter a real business.
