Awesome idea.

Quick thought: You would get a lot more users by testing difference bases(reducing the 15 to something really small, like 5). Feels like more people would do it, you would get more than 5 anyways, and the the exponential gains outweighs the difference in the base.

Thanks for your comment. Good idea. Made the change and lowered the barrier to 5 clicks.

(I had kept the milestone at 15 clicks as a comparison to $3. But you're right, lower base doesn't matter if it can increase the number of people who start sharing.)
