Hi there.
I'm currently working on a Share This module similar to the version available for Wordpress using code compatible for Drupal 5.
Does anyone require this module and maybe intrested in a bounty? I'm looking for $400 and currently have someone intrested and contributing $100.
If anyone is intrested then contact me via the contact page.
Thanks.
Mitesh.

Here's an example of the module on a Wrodpress Site: http://alexking.org/blog
Also i've setup a Chipin for this too:

Hi mchohan, I just chipped
Hi mchohan, I just chipped in 100 bucks. Let me know when the project is finished. Thanks
thanks
thanks Elvis.
So you're looking to show
So you're looking to show http://drupal.org/project/service_links results in a JQuery drop down?
Share This
That's correct. the social bookmarking icons and site names appear in a jquery dropdown which is expanded when you click the Share This link.
Thanks.
Mitesh.
Try
Try this:
http://drupal.org/project/share
This uses Service Links and Forward modules, to create the Share This look (http://alexking.org/blog/2006/12/15/share-this-131).
The demo of the Share This
The demo of the Share This module at http://www.toastbox.co.uk/?q=node/1 is very nice.
I took a quick look at the Share module and it doesn't appear to integrate with Forward 1.6.
Share module and Forward 1.6
Forward 1.6 seems to work for me. There are some settings you have to set in the Forward settings to make it work with Share.
Ah, got it. Share doesn't
Ah, got it. Share doesn't like the Forward module's "link" settings but "share_form" works well.
When both Service Links and Forward are enabled, Share would be much easier to use if it styled the "Social Web" and "E-mail" links as tabs. I would also like to be able to rename the "Social Web" and "E-mail" text to something else in the Share settings. I've posted a feature request for this at http://drupal.org/node/174903
comparing all the cool SHARE/FWD modules
How does ShareThis module compare with:
Share - http://drupal.org/project/share
Addto Any - http://drupal.org/project/addtoany
(I guess for ServiceLinks the answer is it's prettier and uses jquery?)
I'm sure I'm missing others.
What about performance impact on big sites?
thanks.
AddToAny performance is
AddToAny performance is solid. FYI standalone links are on the roadmap for the AddToAny module. Like the WordPress plugin, Service links will be piped through AddToAny's open API so that the redirection/URI schemes are always up to date (see here for publisher link examples).
