I'm surprised there are more reviews of this plugin, but if you're looking for a quick, beautiful and simple follow button plugin this is the one to use! It had all the networks I needed and integrated into my footer easily with the provided template code. I use the white color theme to work best with my site. I've used a few plugins from ShareThis now and this is definitely on par with their high quality work. Great job!
