To promote this feature, there is a contest where the first thread to receive 15 combined social marks will win a year of Gold Membership. One way to share is by clicking G+1, which posts a link to the article on your Google+ account.

I've added a quick way to spread the word and express your interest in a thread. It's simple! When a thread interests you, simply click one or two or all three of the buttons to share the thread to the world. They are located in the top right of every thread page. Please use them as often as you like. Enjoy!

To kick off the new feature I'm going to make a contest. First thread to hit 15 combined social marks that thread poster will receive a year of Gold Membership! Post the thread link if you see one! :)
