Matthew, this is an excellent list of wordpress plugins. This will definitely help bloggers to add the above addons in their wordpress blog.
Thanks for this list and pointing me in the right direction for the tweetmeme plugin – I wondered how you guys got the retweet buttons for all your blog posts – that’s a great plugin, so thanks for the link – I’ll be adding that to my blog this week. I think you should add the ‘more fields’ plugin to your list – http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/more-fields/ – I learnt how to use this last week and it enables you to create a CMS based worpdress website rather than just a blog – check out http://www.cupcakehq.com for the results.
Thanks for the link, I’ll have a look at that.
I wonder if the next full version upgrade of WordPress will move it even closer to CMS with this kind of thing built in?
Oh I hope so – it’ll make life so much easier!
poll daddy is fabulous! Thank you for this list!
Great formative post. Hope you don’t mind but I ‘stole it’ and linked to it in my ‘best of plugins’ post here: http://www.webuildyourblog.com/1172/top-118-wordpress-plugins/
