Now that most blogs are starting to pare-down their social media buttons and go with the dynamic widgets offered by the three or four largest social media sites, you’ve probably seen a few sites with a floating box that hovers along the left side, staying in the viewport as you scroll.
How do you make one of those?
If you don’t mind making your own from scratch, Michael from Pro Blog Design has a great tutorial. His floating box looks nice, moves smoothly and is very customizable, since you’re adding it directly to your theme.
If you need a plugin, Sharebar and Digg Digg both create a similar result with much less effort, but they don’t look quite as nice.
