WordPress Plugin Review: Social Media Share Buttons with Digg Digg

just-ask-kim.com If you’ve had a chance to check out my Top 10 Must Have WordPress Plugins post, you probably already know that I’m in love with the Digg Digg plugin. If not, I’d like to take this opportunity to introduce you to a plugin that has become a must have on my blog! Social media integration is a must these days and few things are more annoying than trying to get countless little share button plugins to all behave at the same time. It seems no matter what you do with the suckers at least one of them always has to have a mind of its own. Fortunately for us, there’s Digg Digg, a WordPress plugin which integrates nineteen and counting possible social media share buttons. It makes them all easy to lay out, lots of flexibility and the best part is they tend to actually go where you tell them to! (Novel idea right?) PS: You can find my Top 10 list at: just-ask-kim.com
