Reviewing through WebsiteMagazine.com and looking at page 9 of the February 2010 article, “Wordpress Plugins To Rock The Party” … I just have to share this with you. Plugins – I sure love using Plugins on my website. There is so many out there I know I have just began using some of the coolest ones – but always looking for the best of the best!
Peter Prestipino, Editor-in-Chief mentions:
WP-Cumulus – he explains this as a 3D rotating your tags, categories or both.
Sexy Bookmarks – Share this with the world by using sexy bookmarks
ExplanatoryDictionary – great way to provide users with information without overwhelming them with click here for this and click here for that
Custom Login Page – change the background image of your login page, the background image and color of your login form, the main image of your login page and even add custom CSS
SI CAPTCHA Anti-Spam – Just a must for additional anti-spam component
Also I would advise you to visit your dashboard of your site and click on Add New under the Plugins menu and search for each of these so you are obtaining the most up-to-date plugin!
Best of luck!

As a mom of 2 children: I know that if your child is born early, a “preemie baby” – your options can be very stressful and unsure what will happen until it does. My daughter was born at 36 weeks and 2 days.
She was under 5 lbs. and was in the NICU for 2 weeks after she was born. Luckily, she was born very healthy and didn’t require many machines or special equipment. She needed some time to grow and develop and the NICU helped to provide that to her since she had to be delivered due to pregnancy induced health condition.
“A little help can help a little life!”
