I have yet to use any share button in any OS or application or website (I copy the link to chats or forums or where I need them if I want to share anything), but I don't really mind it either. Would love to see stats on how often the UI options are used, though. I don't know anyone using those share options. But then again, I don't have many "mainstream" (non-techies) friends :p

Oh, I use the 'share' feature. For sites I'm looking at right now. In that case it is a prominent button right next to bookmark.

I haven't used those features on a random link (vs. page). Agreed, some telemetry about these features or the story behind those would be interesting.
