I've setup a blog for myself using iWeb '08. Is it possible to add a link that readers can use to forward my blog entries to their friends?

Ideally, this feature would forward both my blog entry and a link back to my site, which is similar to the forwarding feature on the nytimes.com website.

thanks!
 
I've discovered that feedburner has a service called feedflare that will insert "Email Article" links into your blog. It seems to be what I'm looking for, but I can't make it work. I'd be quite grateful to anyone who can point me in the right direction.

I'm supposed to enter in the following code into every blog entry:

<script src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/myfeeduri?
spaceUrl=http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/myfeeduri?i=POST-URL-HERE" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>

I tried doing this and replaced "myfeeduri" with "mydomain". I am also supposed to replace "POST-URL-HERE" with "your blog’s template tags to dynamically insert the URL of the current post. " What would that tag be for an iWeb created blog?

I pasted the code into iWeb using the HTML snippet function thinking that the links would at least show up when I published to my site (even though they wouldn't be working) but there was nothing there.

Many thanks to anyone who can help me out with this one.
