Reverbnation uses the free gigya wildfire auto post widget. It allows users to autopost an object to their social pages without any copy/paste. set up a free band account with reverbnation.c0m. They have widgets that you can enter html into. They also have a gigya banner system set up that allows you to link to a custom url. What I did was create a banner (in the banner section) get its code and add a header and footer image/button that links back to the URL of the widget in the widget section where you will place your edited banner code. The added buttons are in the banner's code so they are sitting on the top and bottom of the main image. Now you have a viral widget that always links back to itself! The main banner image can link to an affiliate or back to your squeeze page. It can easily spread on social networks if its of interest. Because the code is pure html it will work with most social networks (unlike flash and java). Also you have a way to track it. Use this method with a bot and maximize results. I have my own API gigya banner system now, so I figured I'd share my old method with BHW members. Thank you guys for all I have learned here!
