This week on one of my projects i needed a good Social Bookmarks Plugin to use at the end of the post. All the plugins i’ve used weren’t good enough. I needed it to be hidden and when i click on the word share it will appear, i need to display the plugin with a tag in the code and not automaticlly, and it has to include an email option, i’ve tried Sociable, Social Bookmarks and share it. all of them, great plugins but not answering all my demands. do you know any plugin has all the things i need? please comment here.
and now for the news:
some weekly plugins from weblogtoolscollection – http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2009/04/27/wordpress-plugin-releases-for-0427/

This week i bumped into some great posts collecting some interesting wordpress themes.
Speckboy which is always recommended wrote about 40 Stylish, Minimal and Clean Free WordPress Themes, you can find some very good clean themes and a few themes which are best to start building your own theme with them.
Another excellent list came from Hongkiat.com, 41 Great Looking Free WordPress Themes, not all of the themes here ahre new but it’s a good collection to bookmark and come back to when you need a nice theme.
Area1, wrote a post about 60 Great WordPress Themes, Most of the great themes cost money, some of them are expensive and some of them aren’t.

Waiting patiently for a bug hunt to be announced before you get involved as a WordPress development contributor? Pshaw! Don’t be shy!
2.8 currently has about 500 active tickets that need to be resolved. The core devs are largely working on the bigger feature additions, such as the embedded theme browser/installer, the new widgets management, improving performance, etc. so a lot of tickets that are of lesser priority are still just sitting there.
