just curious if any of you have any thoughts on the cost / benefit of adding these social bookmark links to your sites. i have mass produced assembly line style lots and lots of sites, and admittedly they are designed more for maximizing adsense revenue than user satisfaction, but i have found that on my sites people rarely click on these social bookmarking links from my sites, and they tend to slow down the load time of my pages.
so i have actually started taking them off of my sites because i don't want the extra drag on my pages' load time.
any thoughts on this? am i just being paranoid?
