How to Add a Facebook Share Link

Facebook is not just a social network for sharing status updates and writing on friends' walls -- you can also keep your Facebook friends up-to-date on the latest news and articles of interest by sharing links. Sometimes, these links are on Web pages outside of Facebook. If a page has a Facebook "Like" button, which replaced the "Share" button of old, you can click the "Like" button to share that article in your Facebook news feed.
