The social network icon flood is getting crowded

Saw this line of social network icons on an article page today. This is crazy. It's almost a cry for help -- "Look at me! Comment on me! Tell your friends about me!"

The only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about.

I was about to say that Google+ was missing, but I guess it having a blue icon is not what I would expect from a google product. Yellow or red (or both) is more their style. Not that it matters - I don't use Google+. :D

There should only be an icon that goes (few lines down) to the same page's comment form  :P

I don't have icons on my site. I noticed speed increase when i removed that. These sharethis, diggthis or social icons make more external HTTP requests which increases the load time. So i simply removed it. One more thing, people hardly share using these icons.
