RT. Should be an important component on the page.

This is simple & light-weight http://miohtama.github.io/FontAwesome-and-Bootstrap-social-icons-example/ image

I think we may want something more direct like this: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/share-button/

hupili commented 10 years ago

@hxu :+1: to add one first. We can always add more later.

Actually one thing that I want ready for launch -- if possible -- is to be able to share a specific visualizations. So you'd go to the choropleth or something, and you'd select an indicator. You should then be able to share the link to that specific indicator.

To make this work, the choropleth would have to change the url path, then the app would have to know to bootstrap itself based on the path.

I've got a good solid chunk of time this weekend to work, so depending on how much I can get done, I'll try to implement this more complicated version, or we'll just slap a few sharing buttons on the front page.

@hxu I think we can do some simple things. We hack around and try to find interesting applications (visualization). Then we manually static-ize some of them, so that people can share these.
