Quick Pitch: Sharein is a simple bookmark tool that helps you to share links to email, Facebook and Twitter from the browser.
Genius Idea: Whether it's great content, funny videos, or just can't-miss-this web finds, the nature of Twitter and the popularity of retweeting has proven that we like to share links with our friends and followers. Sharein, a just launched service with a super smart bookmarklet for your browser, makes it incredibly simple to share and track the things you find on the web with anyone via email, Twitter, or Facebook.
As with all bookmarklets, all you need to do to start sharing is drag the Sharein tool to your browser (though there is a Firefox Plugin you can use instead). Once you create your account, you can click the browser button anytime you discover something on the web you want to share privately via email (you can import contacts from Gmail, Yahoo, and Windows Live), publicly via Twitter, or directly to your Facebook friends. With both Facebook and Twitter, you also don't have to worry about handing over your passwords, as Sharein uses Twitter OAuth and Facebook Connect.
Another big selling point for Sharein is that it does more than just let you share things. For everything you share, the tool will conveniently create a shortened URL and provide you with URL analytics and overall internet reach (ie. reshares across any platform) to track your influence. Plus, you can view an activity feed around your shares, take a look at what other people are sharing, and get an idea of what's popular across the Sharein community. It's basically a URL shortener, bookmarklet, sharing analytics tool, and meme tracker all rolled into one service.
