Just wanted to chime in with my 2 pennies to say I agree 100% with this article. My feeling is that if social interaction is core enough that it needs to appear on every single page of your site (or at least on core, highly trafficked pages) then the common way of doing this sucks on two levels; 1) Depending on other websites to load content? Madness. 2) Depending on JavaScript to execute core functionality? Pointless.
