For our plugin spotlight this week, we’re hauling Alex King up front and center with his GREAT (no, really – GREAT) set of plugin offerings he has available at AlexKing.org. Alex is one of the original developers of WordPress from way back in the day. He is still very much involved in the WordPress community, as evidenced by his great set of plugins:
Share This – Used here on this blog, this plugin is THE ONLY PLUGIN YOU NEED FOR SOCIAL BOOKMARKING. Sorry, didn’t mean to yell – but, really – - this is it. It’s all you need. The Share This plugin allows you and your readers to easily add your posts to the various social bookmarking sites out there, like Digg, Technorati, Del.icio.us, etc. One click is all you need. One click and ONE icon – - so more cluttering up your post footers with a gazillion social bookmarking icons. I love this plugin.
