Hi Clayton I just tried it by sharing on twitter and facebook and the share was successful. The only thing is once you've shared the wiki pages gives you a pop up box inviting the sharer to download something to make it easier to share using IE, whether it would do that if you were using another browser I don't know as I only have IE. Anyway, I just exited the box when I got it, but we need someone with another browser to test it too.
