Read and laugh out loud - I love especially the reference to Dr. Slump, one of my favorite anime as a kid - have to revisit it.
Everyone's favorite emoji began in Japan. But without Google, it may have stayed there.
I love Evernote, but not everyone does - it's big, you need an account for sharing notes etc. Google Keep is simpler and "leightweight" - or pre-installed if you are a Nexus user - so this is a no brainer for sharing simple Notes between me and my partner.

Maybe one of the most complete collection of thoughts around the sharing icon variety. And a nice discussion in the comments - what is not that common.
And why iOS 7's icon is nicknamed the "uploader" - What do each of these symbols have in common? They are all trying to convey the exact same action - share! Sharing to a social network or via email is a ubiquitous action nowadays but designers have still not been able to reach a consensus on what symbol to use to represent it. Not only does each major platform use a different icon, but they've each witnessed changes over the years.I have spent ...
Sharing Buttons seem so 2006 but we still add them on websites - for the eventuality of virality. There are some scenarios where you what to share content - mostly content bits. On AndroidPit we added sharing to App Questions, because those are relatively small content bits which people want to share.
Another strategy is the one the Guardian uses - offer sharing when you select text. Great idea, but you need for sure some on-boarding to make this feature discoverable.
