Is there a simple Facebook "Like" or share URL?

Is there a simple URL string that Facebook will accept to "like" a site... or more accurately (as a commenter points out below), share a site? As a comparison, Twitter allows you to post from any page simply by pointing an anchor at a customized URL... like this:

<a href="https://twitter.com/share?text=Check%20out%20this%20site:&url=http://example.com">Tweet this!</a>

I can't seem to find anything in the Facebook documentation.

Can I get a URL for a specific Facebook post?

How to Get the Link to Your Facebook Post on Desktop. Each Facebook post has a timestamp on the top (it may be something like Just now, 3 mins or Yesterday). This timestamp contains the link to your post. So, to copy it, simply hover your mouse over the timestamp, right click, then copy link address.

Not exactly an answer, but close enough for me:

http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http://mysite.com/

That'll do it.
