I finally learned how to change my default Stumbleupon password. I think the Stumpbleupon user account page sux!

Anyway, I googled for how to change stumbleupon password and followed a link to Yahoo answer which points you to StumbleUpon Help page!

Here’s my version of a Simple 3-Step Guide on How To Change Stumbleupon Password:

1. Go download the StumbleUpon Toolbar

2. Install toolbar and look for the Tools drop-down menu

3. Select Change Passwords…

I also created a Squidoo on How to Change StumbleUpon Password.

After a couple hours of hacking with JavaScript, I finally created my very first SEO-friendly social bookmarking widget specially for this blog. As you can see, I’ve positioned the bookmark widget right at the top of the post to get the most attention and clicks.

The widget is constructed with JavaScript. It is a very simple script which I modified from “Build Your Own Social Bookmark Widget” by Gath Adams.

// JavaScript - bookmarking_widget.js
var theTitle = encodeURIComponent(document.title)
var theURL = encodeURIComponent(document.location)
document.write('<style type="text/css">
  .bookmark_widget{margin:15px 0 10px;font-size:12px;
  font-family:arial,verdana,san serif}
  .bookmark_widget a{font-weight:normal;margin-left:5px}
  </style>')
document.write('<div class="bookmark_widget">')
document.write('<a href="http://del.icio.us/post?url='
  +theURL+'&title='+theTitle+'"
  title="See who bookmarked at del.icio.us" >
  <img src="http://images.del.icio.us/static/img/
  delicious.gif" alt=" " height="16" width="16"
  border="0" />&nbsp;del.icio.us</a> ')
document.write('<a href="http://technorati.com/
  faves/?add='+theURL+'" title="Favorite it at
  Technorati" >
  <img src="http://static.technorati.com/x/static/
  images/buttons/fave.png" alt=" " height="13"
  width="18" border="0" />&nbsp;fave it</a> ')
document.write('<a href="http://reddit.com/submit?url='
  +theURL+'&title='+theTitle+'") title="Add To
  Reddit"><img src="http://sp.reddit.com/
  reddithead4.gif" alt="Reddit" height="16" width="16"
  border="0" />&nbsp;reddit</a>')
document.write('<a href="

http://www.stumbleupon.com/submit?url='+theURL+

  '&title='+theTitle+'") title="StumbleUpon - I like
  it"><img src="http://www.stumbleupon.com/
  images/icon_su.gif" alt=" " height="16" width="16"
  border="0" />&nbsp;StumbleUpon</a>')
document.write("</div>")

And I modified the file single.php of the Prologue theme.

<div id="widget_digg">
  <script type="text/javascript"
  src="http://digg.com/tools/diggthis.js"></script>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript"
  src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>
  /bookmark_widget.js"></script>
<?php the_content( __( '[More...]' ) ); ?>

From the source codes above, you can see that I placed the bookmarking widget after the Digg It Submit Button. I think this layout looks pretty neat.

Beside adding the social bookmarking widget at this blog, I also installed it at http://shihengcheong.com/blog/ and http://www.timmguru.com. As I have a wider column in both of these blogs, I was able to squeeze in a few more social bookmarking sites: Furl, Reddit and also friendfeed.

“But I don’t know JavaScript”

If you are not familiar with JavaScript or just don’t like to DIY, then you can try using Share This WordPress Plugin instead.

Found out at Unique Frequency that FriendFeed was out of beta.

After reading what Daryl said about the new service, I registered – http://friendfeed.com/shihengcheong

I think FriendFeed is quite cool.

Now, I have all my social networking virtual properties all assembled at one location. It’ll be easier for me to connect with all my friends and networks. I would highly recommend that you give it a spin and I am sure you’ll like it.

Go grab the name now before some else registered it…
