SocialCount is a small jQuery plugin for progressively enhanced, lazy loaded, mobile friendly social networking widgets. This plugin currently supports Facebook, Twitter, and Google Plus.
Lightweight, just 2.93KB
Works with mouse, touchscreen, or keyboard.
Mouse: On hover, loads a social network's native widget so that the user can Like/Recommend/+1 without leaving the current page.
Touch screen: simple redirects to dedicated network share pages.
Keyboard: Concise tab order.
Option to conditionally display count if it's above a minimum threshold. Avoid goose egg ghost-town.
Intelligent client-side caching so that two or more widgets with the same share URL only make one AJAX request.
