This is pretty neat. Anyone know how it's done?

Was Googl'ing up some information and came across a tech blog which had this nifty little social lockout for the remainder of it's post (which obviously contained the information I needed).

I've heard of social lockout for content before, but I've never seen it as clean and effective as this version. The ones I've seen/tried before were craptastic and pretty much unusable. Once clicked, it quickly registered the like and displayed the content without any further action from me. Worked really well.

Anyone know how this is done? This a new plugin? Custom script?

The most popular one is probably Pay with a Tweet - A social payment system but this one is different I believe because it has G+

This one serves all 3 of those shown. I used a Like to pay and it executed and displayed the content beautifully. I edited the OP to contain the page in question.

It might be this one from the sick marketing people. Looks similar and handles multiple social networks for "payment".

That looks pretty good, but it doesn't seem to have option to embed into the page and cover up specific parts of the post, like the one shown.

Found it. And, it's free!

Definitely can get some use out of this for some projects. Enjoy bros.

I got the premium version for jquery for a recent project, its pretty good and well documented, pretty easy to customise etc. Also now comes with Facebook share button, linkedin etc which is useful. By default it tracks your unlock simply by cookie, but if i recall there is a 'strict' mode I think which actually forces it to check via FB api.
