    Hey Raj, thank you for putting this EXTREME list man! I like it; you know most twitter plugins do posting on twitter or shows a widget on wordpress sidebar. Thanks to feedburner, we can post new articles on twitter without a plugin and then the twitter widget can be used in the sidebar, so no plugin needed so far. I like the new plugin “tweet and like” that puts twitter and facebook button next to your posts.
