I wrote and released the first version of the completely FREE WordPress Thumbshots plugin and it is available on WordPress.org right now.

The thumbshots plugin allows you to quickly insert an automatically generated thumbshot/screenshot of any website with a shortcode and a URL as a parameter into any WordPress post/page. This plugin makes use of the Thumbshots.com service and can be used with either a free or a paid account.

If you have a free Thumbshots.com account, you can go to ‘Settings’ > ‘Thumbshots’ in your WordPress dashboard menu to turn on the automatic backlink to the Thumbshots.com website which will be placed in the footer of your WordPress website. They require a backlink from your site if you are using a free account else your domain may be banned and you cannot use their service anymore.

Enjoy this release and please feel free to give us your feedback. It is greatly appreciated!

We are proud to announce the release of WordPress Newsletters plugin version 3.7.5. There are a number of additions, improvements and changes to this release of the newsletters plugin.

The plugin allows you to create and maintain mailing lists and send out newsletters to your customers and blog visitors. It integrates seamlessly in WordPress and a post or page can be used to generate a Newsletter. It also works stand alone, meaning you can create a specific newsletter that you want to send out in the editor. There are many free newsletter templates available for download and with a little work you can easily integrate one or more of these into your mailing lists. The best feature about this plugin is that it allows you to give your users to subscribe to different newsletters that you have so they do not receive topical information on other subjects that they have not signed up for.

Newsletters is our flagship product. We use it on our own sites, including this news blog to send out this update which you are reading right now. It gets blasted out to thousands of subscribers/customers of ours.

With the release of tablets by many of the leading manufactures early this year communication is becoming more and more paperless. People expect to communicate and be informed by electronic means.
