A few days ago, we expanded share counts to comments on posts in addition to those in chatter.

Last night on IRC, it was suggested that we unify the 'shared by' functionality in the feed as well. We decided to give it a shot.

Previously, if a post was in your feed only because it had been shared with you, you could see a username of one of the people that shared it with you, as well as a '+n' if more than one person had done so. (i.e. 'shared by _refugee_ +2')

Starting today, we have added the total share count to posts. Clicking on the number will show you who shared the post, and who shared it with you.

The result looks fine to me. My only concern is that shared counts might put too much focus upon the number of shares a post has.

Let's try it out for a few days. We can always change it back. Let me know your thoughts.
