Plugins

Nov 9th, 2007 by Rudi

Ein kleiner Blick hinter die Kulissen: hier sehen Sie die Plugins, die ich gerade in blog-O-rama verwende. Sie sind das Ergebnis einer harten Auslese, denn auch bei den Plugins lege ich Wert auf höchste Qualität. Wenn Sie meinem Vorbild folgen und diese Plugins auch in Ihrem Blog verwenden, machen Sie bestimmt nichts falsch.

Allerdings werden Sie hier immer auch ein paar Plugins finden, die ich erst einmal teste. Genügen Sie meinen Ansprüchen nicht, fliegen sie hier schnell wieder raus. Also bitte nicht alles hier einfach unbesehen übernehmen, sondern immer auch selbst testen und prüfen!

There are 75 plugins used: 70 active plugins and 5 inactive plugins.
