One Of My Favorite WP Plugins

WordPress offers a variety of plugins, but one of my favorites is called "Blackbird Pie".

Using a new article for i70baseball, here is the basics of Blackbird Pie...

With Blackbird Pie, it is easy to incorporate individual tweets, complete with twitter interaction, in your blog. First, you need to find the Tweet you want to feature:


Once you do that, simply copy the URL of the tweet and click the Blackbird Pie icon in your toolbox (it looks like this):

From there, you will have a dialog box open up and you will paste the URL into the box like so:



Clicking on "Insert" will leave your post with a line that looks something like this:



And your post, once live on your site, will look like this:



Notice that your readers can reply, retweet, favorite and jump to the user account all from within the new image on your post.

Until next time...
