Create social bookmarks

Social bookmarks is a thing you must have on your website if you want to increase the number of your returning visitors. More and more people rely on sites like del.icio.us or ma.gnolia.com to store their bookmarks. I use it too. It's safer this way. Why should I store my valuable bookmarks on my hard disk when I change my system at almost every 2 months due to viruses, errors or who knows what other reason. I always lose something. Enough with the talking. Webmasters - grab this code and keep the visitors on your page. Offer them a way to come back. A way that they've signed up for...that hey like: social bookmarks.

function soc_bookmark($link, $title, $icon = 'Y') {
    $link = rawurlencode($link);
    $title = rawurlencode($title);
    $icon_folder = 'bookmarks/icons/';
    $bookmark = array(

soc_bookmark(selfURL(), $definePageTitle);

You will notice a function called "selfURL". You can find it here. This function will get the actual web url. If your page is dynamic this function does it all. You won't have to type the url of every page that you will be using with the social bookmarks function. "$link" will always be the actual URL of the page that is bookmarkes. To download the icons. Click here. Here's an example:
