Bug Description
The social media links (Twitter, G+, etc) are in the header and not immediately obvious to a user who wants to quickly share an article. If a reader is looking for them, I suspect they could be found (maybe - it took me a while), but they don't entice anyone into sharing, which is something we want to encourage. This is exacerbated by the more prominent presence of the Instapaper and Pocket links (which I would contend are much less important). By having those two in a prominent position it looks like there is no other action for a user to take (and therefore no reason to go searching for the social media links).
I think the sharing links should be more obvious, visible on each article not hidden in a menu. If the Instapaper and Pocket links need to be sacrificed to make room, I think that's okay.
