Share with Twitter

Just wondering if I am going crazy or not. Didn't there used to be a "Share deal with Twitter" button on the deal pages?

Was it removed?

I am seeing a trend with Twitter, not as much support and use as it really deserves, imo. I personally find it much better than Facebook.

Yes share with Twitter was removed as it wasn't really used much comparing to Facebook or Google+. Most re-tweets are done by spammers I found.

Anyone else been using that?

How about as a compromise, only show the Tweet button to logged in members? An email and share on FB button would be good. I assume the like button doesn't ask you to post something after, like the Google Plus button?

  Both Like and G+ buttons can optionally ask you to write something.
  
  With Facebook Like, once you like a page it goes to your wall straight away, but some text can optionally be added to your Facebook status update.
  
  With Google +1, once you +1 a page it gets listed under your +1 list under Google+ (and your future Google search results). However it will only be added to your Google+ stream if you write something.
  
  Anyway. I'll bring the Twitter back :) Most time I'll see posts with multiple re-tweets, but only by other websites scrapping OzBargain's feed :P
