 * This might be a silly question since I’m really new at this. Can someone please
   tell me how to include this script tag inside of my plugin file? I know that 
   I should use enqueue_script to link a js file, but this one is just a piece of
   code for a jQuery plugin that I want to turn into a customizable WP plugin. Should
   I insert it as part of $content?
 * <script type=”text/javascript”>
    addthis.layers({ ‘theme’ : ‘gray’, ‘share’ :{‘
   position’ : ‘left’, ‘numPreferredServices’ : 5 } }); </script>

 * Hook into either ‘wp_head’ or ‘wp_footer’ actions, depending if you want it in
   the head section or at the end of the file. From you action callback, just `echo`
   the entire thing and it’ll show up in the head or footer of every page.
