You have probably noticed share buttons on websites; the common ones are Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, and Google Plus. Now Yammer can potentially join the list. Microsoft owned Yammer is an enterprise focused social network that provides a private social experience for teams and organizations. Microsoft has now released ‘The Yammer Share Button’ to enable faster collaboration.

You can use the button to share to your network, or specific groups or coworkers. You can see the button in action on Microsoft’s Customer Success Center and Blog. To embed the button on your own site, Microsoft has provided a very simple code, accessible here.

One of the commentators on Yammer’s blog noted that the size of the Yammer button is ‘huge,’ with some formatting trouble and no way to resize. Microsoft has offered a quick fix in the comments (making a CSS class for the button), with a promise of a fix coming soon.

Radu Tyrsina has been a Windows fan ever since he got his first PC, a Pentium III (a monster at that time). For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web. Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they're looking for.
