If you’re using WordPress and want to insert some sharing links for some of the most popular social site across the web you could go the easy route and instal a plugin. But if you want the links diretly in your template I’ve compiled the links for a few of the most used sites:

Facebook

u=<?php echo urlencode(get_permalink())?>
&t=<?php echo urlencode(get_the_title()) ?>"
target="_blank">Share on Facebook</a>

>Share on Delicious</a>
