Social Bookmarking allows you to quickly and easily add backlinks to your website as well as allowing your readers to contribute to your success, add links to your site and share your content with an even larger audience.

Occasionally these APIs are custom made for individual browsers but you would probably recognize them as the “Digg This” types of buttons that allow websites to be shared with others.
