The plugin is called Sociable and can be configured in the WP dashboard under Settings, Sociable. Social Bookmarking is different than pinging, so be careful social bookmarking your own posts every time. The social sites don't really like self-promotion, so if all you bookmark is your own same domain it will probably eventually get banned. However pinging your blog posts once (only once) is acceptable, as it is meant to tell the pinged sites that you have new content to crawl and let others know about.

Could you tell us the advantages of using this plugin versus using the built in wordpress "update services"? Also, is there any truth about adding too many plugins will slow down the loading of the blog? Thanks, Alex “I suggest and install the Smart Update Pinger plugin for this purpose.”
