Action Streams Plugin

Everywhere I look these days it seems that many sites are using Action Streams to show what they're linking to or what they've been doing.

When the Action Streams plugin was first released I looked at it and thought it was too hard to implement. I've now installed it on Toni Hambilton Online, and it seems it couldn't be easier. The instructions are well written and I even managed to style it so it fitted in perfectly with the rest of the site.

It's interesting to see what other bloggers are bookmarking and I've found myself following links quite often. Every time I save a link to Magnolia or Delicious, I wished I had the action stream plugin installed so I could share my links too.

Of course, Action Streams is capable of much more than what I'm using it for. The possibilities for this plugin are endless, and new features are constantly being added by plugin developers.
