Truth is I’m not really a fan of lots of plugins going on in a blog,but Sexy Bookmarks is very sleek and not very obtrusive to your blog or design. It’s extremely easy to configure with a settings page directly in your wordpress dashboard after activating the plugin.It’s a Great Plugin!!

I prefer Sexy Bookmarks for Sharing because I like the design better. Add to any is more for syndication to different RSS readers than anything but the same company offers a Share button that does essentially the same thing as Sexy Bookmarks, and is good for when page space is sparse.

You list both add to any and sexy bookmarks, which do mostly the same thing.

Which do you actually prefer?

I really do need to check out Contact Form 7. I use cforms. I would add to this list:

Google XML Sitemaps* — auto generates XML sitemap for your Google Webmaster Account: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/google-sitemap-generator/

All in One SEO Pack* — full control over title and meta description and keywords for each page and post: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/all-in-one-seo-pack/

Broken Link Checker* — checks for broken links throughout your site: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/broken-link-checker/

Tiny MCE Advanced Editor — advanced toolbar for the TinyMCE editor: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/tinymce-advanced/

Exclude Pages* — so helpful for excluding certain pages from navigation (such as privacy policy and sitemap) without having to edit the template file: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/exclude-pages/

Sexy Bookmarks looks pretty good.. I’ve not used it …

Contact Form 7 user as well.. Seems this is much better than cFormsIII
