  1. POThe purpose of loading External Javascript of social media into webpages
    text
    copied!<p>When adding social media resources in webpage, the traditional method results in loading much external JS from other domains, just to load an iframe or an anchor with a brand image background. Probably the below are the most transferred files over the web (after the <a href="http://www.google-analytics.com/ga.js" rel="nofollow">http://www.google-analytics.com/ga.js</a> 36.35KB, which is somehow inevitable for many)</p> <p><a href="http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js" rel="nofollow">http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js</a> 181.30KB (59.06KB gzipped)<br> <a href="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" rel="nofollow">https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js</a> 75.19KB (24.42KB gzipped)<br> <a href="https://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js" rel="nofollow">https://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js</a> 16.71KB<br> <a href="http://assets.pinterest.com/js/pinit.js" rel="nofollow">http://assets.pinterest.com/js/pinit.js</a> (well this is small, but still unneeded connection) </p> <blockquote> <p>For example, <a href="http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js" rel="nofollow">http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js</a> does only one thing: adding an iFrame <code>&lt;iframe src="//www.facebook.com/plugins/likebox.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Flavishdream&amp;amp;width=292&amp;amp;height=180&amp;amp;colorscheme=light&amp;amp;show_faces=true&amp;amp;border_color&amp;amp;stream=false&amp;amp;header=false" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:292px; height:180px;" allowtransparency="true"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;</code></p> <p>Twitter and Google Plus scripts does very similar tasks, only adding small HTML chunks into the page.</p> </blockquote> <p>Why not only writing those iFrames, images and anchors HTML ?</p>
