    Love these. I recently added SumoMe to my personal site. It’s a great addition. I’m looking forward to checking out these other ones too. What do you think of KingSumo Giveaways? If I’m remembering right, it’s pricey, but looks like a very cool feature.

      It’s worth it to me, because it is already set up to give incentive for spreading the word.
