When ever you write something on your blog you always want to share it with others, even your blog readers want the same (if they like it off course) . To do this there are lots of wordpress plugins available giving readers the ability to bookmark your site to a number of social networking and bookmarking sites.
I tried to compile a list of more than 20 plugins that will let you make your WordPress blog more social. I suggest you do not install all of them just choose one which you like the most or think is the best.
