Brief statement of work performed Added some code for users to share with a button (Facebook, Pinterest, Reddit, Twitter inlcuded) Code can be seen here: https://github.com/suwebdev/earth-covers/blob/feature/facebookfans/sharefb
Any notes, comments, or update instructions about the work. May have to be added on every page because this code relies on the header and html of pages.
Name of issue: Facebook Fans and social media sharing
Reference: https://github.com/suwebdev/earth-covers/wiki/User-Stories:-About-the-Author,-Popular,-Links,-Fans
Estimated size Small
Your reasoning for adding this Issue to the Sprint: In this day and age, people are more connected to social media and their devices than the traditional method of word-of-mouth sharing. If a user is able to share their Likes or Dislikes easily, with one button or one click, this will enhance the user's experience as well as encourage participation.
Finding other friends who are fans of the same author (or the website database) is beneficial to community building and friendship.
What is the priority that has been assigned? Low priority
How do you interpret this fitting into the process of building this project? It will probably come at a later time because it depends on existing media and code to be able to implement. However, it is a small size project, so it should be fairly easy to include in the database.
Why should this be in the Sprint this time? Why not wait until the next Sprint? It can wait until the next Sprint, because it is dependent on other media. But building content with the mindset of sharing it in the future means better code in the long run.
