What is this badge?

The uberVU badge shows a real-time count of the number of times your webpage or blog post has been shared or commented on a variety of social networks: Twitter, Friendfeed, Digg, Hacker News, Yahoo Buzz, Reddit, Stumble Upon, Delicious.

The badge lets your visitors to see where the discussion is happening and also make a contribution to each platform by tweeting or voting on all the platforms above.

We have also created a Wordpress plugin which integrates the badge into your Wordpress posts.
