besides... IMO... del.icio.us is far better than the clones

digg is a good idea, but for books we can do better once the shared annotations from within a book will work.
Well not all these websites have plugins. And eventhough you don't use all of these, most of them have thousands of users.
We don't display the full list on every page, just a few one: digg (very popular), yahoo (the most used ajax homepage), librarything (most popular social network for books) and del.icio.us (the most popular social bookmarking service). But there's much more listed if you press on "More...".

Annotations will be nice once we'll have a widely used format for it: not the case yet.

In the meantime, I'll be working on much closer integration of Feedbooks in a few social networks: even without annotations, there's already a few pretty cool things we can provide.
