=head1 NAME

Blosxom Plugin: submit_to_reddit

=head1 SYNOPSIS


This extension adds a 'reddit this!' link to the bottom
of every blog post and RSS item. It was inspired by an XML.com article on
Immediate Action Feeds

http://www.xml.com/lpt/a/2005/12/14/putting-rss-to-work-immediate-action-feeds.html

Notes:

If you plan to use this on your own blosxom powered site you'll probably
need to change $post_url to suit your own permalink style.

This plugin currently creates a CGI object way too often. If you build a
static version of your site this won't be a problem. If your
site is completely dynamic it's worth watching.
