WordPress has been specifically created so that non-technical, but talented writers can install, configure and run a Blog site successfully. I think that the greatest attribute built into the WordPress core, is how easy it is to extend the functionality of the WP core using essential wordpress plugins. In this PPT I’d like to share my experiences with various WP Admin plugins I’ve used either on my own Blog or installed and configured for a client on their Blog. Let me know if you use any other plugins.
