Hey everybody,

So for the third intermediate platform task, we were supposed to add three new plugins to our blogs. This gave us all an opportunity to add more plugins to our blogs in addition to the Google Analytics, which we already set up. For my three new plugins, I chose the following:

• GD Star Rating — I added this plugin to my blog so that my readers have even more ways to interact with my blog. Interaction between bloggers and their readers are one of the keys to sustaining a successful blog. Please feel free to start rating my posts. I’d love to hear what you think!
• Google Calendar Widget & Short Code — Enabling this plugin gave me a chance to embed my Google Calendar to the blog. Since I am the Google Ambassador on Temple’s campus, I plan on using the Google Calendar to list any upcoming events on campus. If you’re interested in attending a Google event, please keep an eye on my Google Calendar.
• Viper’s Video Quicktags — This plugin allows bloggers to easily embed videos from sites such as YouTube, DailyMotion, and Vimeo. I plan on posting a lot of media-related content to this blog, so this plugin will definitely come in handy. Stay tuned for some of my upcoming videos!

I’m really happy with the plugins that I activated. Each of these plugins will make this blog more engaging. Hope you enjoy the new addition. Let me know what you think!
