Widgets and Plugins
• As you search for widgets and plugins keep in mind what you want them to do for you. A few key widgets and plugins to have on your wordpress blog are based around the next 3 topics: Advertisements, Media, and Social Networks. Downloading and installing plugins can be done automatically with Wordpress by going to your plugins tab and searching. Plugins can be downloaded for other blog platforms from other sites by searching Google.
  

• 1. Advertisements
One of the most popular advertisment widgets is by far OIO Publisher. OIO Publisher allows you to directly sell your ad space, at the price you want and when you want.
Also I recommend Bidvertiser – Promote your Website or Blog with BidVertiser. Get $20 in FREE clicks.

2. Pictures, Videos, and Audio

Pictures – I use – Flickr, which can be built into wordpress with a plugin. Check out my gallery here!
Video/Audio – I would suggest a youtube account since you will be able to find the most support integrating youtube with wordpress, typepad, or blogger.
• 3. Social Networks – Register, Follow Me, and I’ll Follow Back!
A. Twitter
B. Digg
C. Blogger
D. MyBlogLog

  A weblog, also known as a blog, is basically an online journal where you can type your thoughts, ideas, opinions, and practically anything that you want to share. The information you share on a blog can be kept private, like a diary, or made public. A blogger has, at their sole discretion, the choice to talk about and share anything they want. A blog can be seen as many things, many blogs fall into the category of personal or business/corporate. Some blogs also take a more media proactive approach, with web cams, videos, and audio recordings. The below information should prove useful.
