I've seen this exact menu on two unrelated sites. How would I mimic it? Is it made with some popular framework?

Collapsed/normal state: Normal State Image

Here's the fly out state: Flyout State Image

You can see the menu used on BNET and on TechRepublic

Something like this, http://www.addthis.com/

Probably the most popular.

It seems to be generated by BNET:

My answer is an alternative, but +1 for the exact match. Never seen that one before.

Me neither. I just guessed since Bnet was the first entry in the widget. Not so common... And apparently the guess was right :)

It's generated by BNET and also on Techrepublic.

You could use YUI Menu to build it, http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/menu/

But honestly that looks pretty simple to implement with a floating div that you use jquery to show/hide when the share button is clicked.

Here is a quick example I coded up, http://jsfiddle.net/yhmrQ/

Just click share and the menu appears, click share again and it hides.
