When you share a game on a social media platform, your owner ID goes with it. Thus, if someone watches the game and actually joins the site, you'll get credit for that like any other referral. But it's just a great, easy way to share any game that is particularly noteworthy, even if it's just to E-mail it.
I'm still experimenting with this... theoretically I should be able to use this to publish game links to the forums, and for leagues that have league blogs set up you should be able to send games there too. Facebook, MySpace and Twitter are highlighted, but hovering over the link brings up around a dozen more and clicking the Share link brings up over two hundred options.
There's an example shared on my Facebook wall at http://www.facebook.com/celamantia, although it's fallen back a few places since I was testing it yesterday; I'm also attaching a screen shot of what it looks like on your Wall.

I have one last feature that needs to be checked out before we move the code over. On the boxscore page above and to the right of Dynasty Vision, is a new "Sharing" toolbox to easily allow you to share your game across a number of social media platforms. The only social media I am on, however, is Facebook and MySpace, so that is all I have tested.
