This project integrates sharrre.com library for displaying customizable social media counter, into a service to be used with Services Link module.

Compare to the widgets (Facebook, Twitter...) existing in the sub-module Widget Services (using iframes), "with Sharrre you can create uniform buttons to integrate with your designs". API request to the social media websites and markup complexity are minimum, improving loading of the page.

The module provide by default font-icon for each social media to have clean and sleak icons: they are easily customizable by css (changing size, color) or you can provide your own icons instead.

However for the services Google+ and Stumbleupon, as indicated by the sharrre.com author, there is no proper API to retreive the count information. This is done by "reverse engineering" of the response sent by those services. Therefore it is not officially supported.
