Searching around through the WordPress plugins page – I was looking for an easy way to do split testing in this popular blogging platform. While it does not seem anybody has invented the perfect solution, I did run across several plugins that almost get the job done.

Everybody has a mobile phone these days (except me) so you need to make sure your website preforms both on common desktop browsers and mobile phone browsers too. One way to insure that you have the best looking mobile website out there is to pick up the MobilePress add-on for WordPress.
5 Useful WordPress Dashboard Plugins
The WordPress dashboard is a pretty useless tool if you ask me. I have found some great plugins for WordPress though that add a lot of functionality to it, to make the dashboard useful again. Check out these five great plugins for WordPress and then try to tell me your WordPress dashboard is not better for having added them into the mix.
Buy and Sell Premium WordPress Plugins
When I first heard about a place that was selling plugins for WordPress, I was a little depressed by the idea. One of the great things about WordPress is there are so many great plugins and so many great plugin authors out there. You can really find a plugin to do just about anything. However, WPPlugins is not a replacement for how plugins are developed in WordPress. It just gives you a place to get higher quality plugins and also give something back to the plugin developers.
Look at Nucleus CMS
Looking for a free script to use that can give you a way to publish multiple authors, run multiple blogs, draft and schedule posts, and is fully extendable via pugins? No, I am not talking about WordPress – I am talking about Nucleus CMS. This alternative to WordPress is well worth checking out if you need a blogging script that is reliable, time tested and very solid.
Best All-in-one IM Client
Out of all the chat clients out there, and I have tested them all, Pidgin might be the best total package. Simply put, it is the easiest way to keep all your instant messenger friends in one place. You can connect to AIM, MSN, Yahoo, Google Talk, Jabber and more all in one place.
20 Best Multimedia Plugins for WordPress
WordPress is a great publishing platform to use when you want to circulate your own collection of video or images on the Web. Thanks to a few great plugins, you can take your dull text-based blog and really snaz it up with some great internet imagery. Want to great a photo gallery? Want to plug YouTube into your web site? I have collected twenty of the best multimedia plugins for you to use with your own WordPress powered web site.
Page Flip Image Gallery – Flipping Book plugin helps you to create Image Gallery with Page Flip effects on your WordPress blog.
Post videos and photo galleries – Post your videos and photo galleries/flash slideshows easily and in seconds.
NextGEN Gallery – NextGEN Gallery is a full integrated Image Gallery plugin for WordPress with a Flash slideshow option.
WordTube – WordTube is your Media Center plugin for WordPress.
Wiki + CMS = BoltWire
Looking for a wiki script for your next great web site project?
As somebody who’s built one from the ground up – I can tell you picking the right script for the job, is not an easy task to do. With a surprising amount of flexibility and power, BoltWire might be one of the easiest to use wikis out there.
It takes the cake when it comes to mixing the strengths of various script categories together. Is it a CMS? Is it a wiki? It is a little ‘bit of both.
Make Any Site Print Friendly
Ever been browsing an article or guide online that you wish you could print out, without all the junk that the web site provides? Print Friendly offers to make any web site out there easier to print. You can use their web site tool to enter the URL you wish to simplify for your printer, or use the bookmarklet to gain access to the tool at any time.
You can then e-mail the printer friendly version to your friends, tweet about it, or edit the document removing pictures or blocks of text.
Want to add this interactivity to your own web site layout, maybe under each article that you post? You can do that too by grabbing the Print Friendly button code. For WordPress users, there is even a plugin you can install to add it to all your blog posts automatically.
Overall, Print Friendly is a pretty nice service, if you are looking to do a little article simplification, perfect for print.
