A CodePen by Ali. Twitter buttons without the iframe - Embedding Tweet or Follow buttons on responsive sites can be a bit of a touchy subject. Including them can increase page load time greatly. However, they are a great and easy way to spread the word about a new blog post or article. 

I've proposed some lite mobile first twitter buttons purely to aid sharing and following. Functionality of the iframed versions isn't avalible but anyone who really cares about seeing the tweet counts surely just in it for the ego boost! :P enjoy!
