Summary of Plugins

Listed below is the plugins I have used on my website.

Widgets
Twitter for Wordpress (Bottom Left)
Twitter isn't something I use a lot, but I can see how it could be useful for keeping people updated with the site and what I'm working on etc. I would have liked to make some changes with this plugin, like push the date down onto a new line.

Tumblr Widget (Bottom Middle)
Widget that displays my latest post on Tumblr. I don't use Tumblr that much, so I would have liked to have something similar to this, but for Blogger but couldn't really find anything that worked like the Tumblr widget does. Maybe I should just use Tumblr instead from now on.

Text (Bottom Right and Sidebar)
Just using the default text plugin to add the network buttons and about me text on the main page.

Plugins
WP-Paginate (Index page and Category pages)
Rather than having Newer and Oldest links, this adds a page number to the bottom of the page which you can use to navigate through pages. This then shows you what page you are on and you can navigate the pages more quickly and easier.

Fast Secure Contact Form (Contact page)
The contact form used. I would have liked to have the form centered on the page, but couldn't work out how to achieve that.

Non-Plugins
Share This (Single post page)
Social network sharing buttons located at the bottom of each post.
