			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of the greatest things about WordPress is that thanks to the numerous plugins for it, you can customize it in any way you like. It is true that there are many cool WordPress plugins and it is very subjective what a must have plugin is but here are some recent and not very common (or at least not yet) WordPress plugins you can use: </p>
<h4><a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/zemanta/">Zemanta</a></h4>
<p>Zemanta is a popular plugin you will find on many <a href="http://www.webhostingsearch.com/wordpress-hosting.php">best WordPress hosts</a> and its main function is to find related content (articles and images) from all over the Web and list it on your site.<span id="more-1363"></span></p>
<p class="image"><img src="http://www.ndesign-studio.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/zemanta.png" alt="screenshot" /></p>
<h4><a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/twitoaster/">Twitoaster</a></h4>
<p>This plugin is great, if you want to integrate your Twitter posts and the comments you get there with your blog because it automatically retrieves them from Twitter (the whole thread) and posts them as a post on your blog.</p>
<p class="image"><img src="http://www.ndesign-studio.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/twitoaster.jpg" alt="screenshot" /></p>
<h4><a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mingle/">Mingle</a></h4>
<p>The simple way to turn your WordPress blog into a Social Network. Mingle uses your standard WordPress website and standard WordPress theme to create profile pages, user friending, profile page posts, profile activities, social comments, email notifications (with privacy settings) and a full directory of members. </p>
<p class="image"><img src="http://www.ndesign-studio.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/mingle.jpg" alt="screenshot" /></p>
<h4><a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/comment-rating/">Comment Rating</a></h4>
<p>For blogs with tons of comments, Comment Rating is very handy because it allows to give users the option to rate comments, thus sorting useful comments from the crap.</p>
<p class="image"><img src="http://www.ndesign-studio.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/comment-rating.gif" alt="screenshot" /></p>
<h4><a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/jr-ads/">JR_Ads</a></h4>
<p>This plugin allows you to display advertisements from various different networks or ad sizes! You can have 3 different widgets with ad code on, so you can quickly select what code you wish to display, and then put them in the position that you want.</p>
<h4><a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/fadeout-thumbshots/">FadeOut-Thumbshots</a></h4>
<p>Thumbnail previews of hyperlinks on a Wordpress page are commonly used on many blogs. This plugin not only displays thumbnails but it also allows to choose which links to preview.</p>
<p class="image"><img src="http://www.ndesign-studio.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/fadeout-thumbshots.png" alt="screenshot" /></p>
<h4><a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/autopublish/">Autopublish Highlights</a></h4>
<p>If you blog a lot about stuff you find on other blogs, then you will certainly appreciate this plugin, which allows to automatically embed/quote a portion of any web-page (and your comments). The main advantage of the plugin is that it speeds the process of post writing. </p>
<p class="image"><img src="http://www.ndesign-studio.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/autopublish.jpg" alt="screenshot" /></p>
<h4><a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mail-on-update/">Mail On Update</a></h4>
<p>This is a small plugin with a very useful functionality, if you have many other WordPress plugins installed. The Mail on Update plugin sends you an email when a new version of an installed plugin is available, thus saving you the trouble to log into wp-admin. </p>
<h4><a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/instant-web-highlighter/">Instant Highlighter</a></h4>
<p>Instant Highlighter is a nice way to help your visitors promote your site because when you install this plugin, users can highlight in color portions of your site and post it On Facebook, MySpace, delicious, digg, Tweet and other social networking/social bookmarking sites or share them with their friends. Additionally, all highlights are automatically saved and stored. </p>
<p class="image"><img src="http://www.ndesign-studio.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/instant-highlighter.png" alt="screenshot" /></p>
<h4><a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/display-widgets/">Display Widgets</a></h4>
<p>Finally, this plugin is really, really useful. It does one thing but it is brilliant – it allows you to choose which pages a particular widget will be displayed on. This is very flexible because you don&#8217;t have to display a widget on all pages when you need it on only one or a couple of them.</p>
<p class="image"><img src="http://www.ndesign-studio.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/display-widgets.png" alt="screenshot" /></p>
<h4>Credits</h4>
<p>This article is compiled by Web Hosting Search. WordPress is a great blogging platform and thanks to its plugins, you can make your WordPress blog a really outstanding one. WordPress is reliable and if you want to make everything perfect, you just need to choose the best wordpress host as your  <a href="http://www.webhostingsearch.com/">web hosting</a> solution. </p>

Finally, I have a new release &#8212; the <a href="http://www.ndesign-studio.com/wp-themes/notepad">Notepad theme</a>.

It has been tested on WordPress 2.9 with Firefox, Chrome, Safari, and IE7+. It also includes some nice CSS3 enhancement such as rounded corners and drop shadow.
