The method of sharing social network
links varies and how it is done depends on the site. For example,
for Facebook, after a recipient clicks the Facebook link, they are
asked to log in, and then they have the option to share the message
with their friends or post it on their wall. In LinkedIn, they can
share the message with friends. In Twitter, they can post it as a
tweet on their profile.
