Hi!

I had an idea that I was thinking about implementing on my site that I thought would be worth suggesting for the theme in general. A number of authors I've read submit many of their posts to news aggregation sites like Hacker News and Lobste.rs for discussion. Some sites do this rather than supporting commenting, while others do and presumably submit posts mainly for increased visibility. I think it'd be cool to support this natively in the theme by allowing users to specify a hackernews and lobsters content parameter so that a "continue the discussion on Hacker News/Lobsters" link (or button) could be conditionally included at the bottom of the article. Thoughts?

If this was confusing, I can find some concrete examples.

I figure I might as well clarify with an image, so here goes (taken from Anish Athalye's blog):

Perhaps something below the title like this? Not too overbearing, and conditionally included for social site links added by the user.

Hi ! Thank you for the issue !

I think that an awesome idea, it could be really greatly integrated to the theme. It is not too complicated and flexible, I like that !

Sounds great! I'll get a pull request going, probably later today or sometime tomorrow.

Got bogged down for a few days, but the PR has been made!
