As mentioned previously, one of the most frequent feature requests we receive at Propeller is the ability to share stories efficiently with Propeller friends. Today, I am pleased to announce that Propeller now offers a Share Story feature on all story detail pages. To share a story, go to a story's detail page by clicking the headline or the "(read more)" link. The Share Story feature is then accessible below the story summary in a toolbar, having taken the place of the "Send to Group" button.

      I like having the email option back. I know quite a few people who do not use Propeller on a regularly basis and now I can send out easy emails to them on interesting stories I find here on Propeller.

      thanks devs

        It's great though the convenience of propping inside the email might discourage people from writing comments.

        FTA "And that's it! We hope that the Share Story feature helps members promote good news faster."

        This story has not been shared with me so far.
        I propped it.

        Sweet news to all of us.
        Thanks developers team.

                  It should be very beneficial all round - for all of us and for propeller's well-being and development.
