The trouble with adding plugins is you lose track of what’s really useful and what’s a gimmick. And when you upgrade some stop working or mess up your site. Before I add any of these I will have to ask myself – will this really make a big difference?! Which ones to you swear by?

I try not to add gimmicky ones!

Andrew,
How do you integrate WordPress blog with Facebook?
Do you use a special plugin to post to your Facebook wall every time you post to your blog?
Or is there a setting in Facebook that should be turned on to enable this?
Timo,
I use this FB application:

You simply add your blog RSS feed and it automatically posts on your FB page.
