UPDATE:- To add a floating widget to the left of all your posts like in this blog then please read: Floating Counters Next To Posts Finally the Sliding Counters! Till now we learned and created many floating social share buttons but those button widgets in fact do not slide when the user scrolls the page up or down. The only thing I needed was a well constructed JavaScript code that could make the widget to float up and down synchronously with the webpage movement. Thanks to Jtricks' Floating Menu code, we finally managed to bloggerize the floating effect and this widget is all ready to be added to your beautiful blogger blogs. Kindly view the demo first,
