My housemate loves Neatorama and always wants to share posts to his Facebook friends. Before those social media buttons existed, he would always bother me about how to do this. Now that he can see the Facebook button he can do this without bothering me, they should definately stay. How could such an imminently familier icon's removal simplify a web page?

Social media buttons make life easier for socially active folk who aren't computer nerds to share content.In my opinion you would be shooting yourselves in the foot (feet) to remove them.

Happy New Year,

Greg.

Sometimes my web access crawls at a slow pace. If during these times I try to watch an embedded video on Neatorama the whole thing grinds to a halt. I would like to be able to stop streaming that video and move on to a text or single frame item but the video is still trying to stream, everything is locked until the video has finished loading. Is there a way we cad cancel the video stream and move on to less hefty posts?
