I am learning so much from this post! Thanks, Jennifer. You have more than I do, and I plan to copy from your list and readers' suggestions... but I have one I can tell you the name of, even though I don't think I ever got it to work: permalink redirect. I guess I'd better go to my own dang blog now and write something new already! Julie @ the calm before the storks last blog post..blog identity crisis

I use an embarassing amount of plugins- just a few that haven’t been mentioned:

In Series- great for creating a series of connected posts.
IMM Glossary
Alinks

My absolute favorite is Urban Giraffe’s Redirection plugin. It has really saved me from 404 errors when I change the a post’s title, which changes its slug, which changes its url. If the the page has already been indexed then you need to redirect from the old to the new post and this plugin does it automatically for you. You can also use it for any other kind of redirect.

Great idea but I don't want to embarrass myself with a poor haiku. Grinding Teeth's last blog post..How To Stop Grinding Teeth At Night

Well, your list of plug-ins is very similar to mine. And very similar to you still can't figure out the right way to use All-in-one SEO thing..... Hersh Bhardwaj's last blog post..Are You a Fluorescent Pig, or, a Purple Cow? Ebay Knows!

I am a total plugin slut. I’ve even re-coded some of them, and believe me, I have *no* place trying to do that.

So:

1. Executable PHP: I have this only so I can include little stock “snippets” using php include calls. If you don’t know what that means, you don’t need them.

2. FeedBurner FeedSmith, so I don’t have to deal with RSS feed issues (FeedBurner takes care of it).

3. Google Sitemaps.

4. LinkLove, so people who comment 10 times on my blog automatically get follow links.

5. MyAvatars, MyGravatars, and MyBlogLog — so I can get those regular visitor lists.

6. opml-browser widget: So my blogroll comes straight off my Google Reader blog list, rather than me having to manage it myself.

7. Popularity Contest: So I can have a “10 favorite posts” list.

8. Post List by Category or Field: I wrote this myself so I can create a list of posts that are in a particular category. For example, I have a group of posts called “What’s it like to be a stay-at-home dad” and another that are tagged “favorite.”

9. Post Stumbler.

10. Similar Posts.

11. Twitter Tools.

And a few more. I totally heart plugins. Beats me why! I just love to customize, I guess…

Dd.

You use all the plugins I do, and then some. I love to just sit and browse through them. I tried installing a poll one, but even though it is installed, it's still not showing up in my plugins for me to activate. And I have lots of things I want to poll about!

I love the idea of ‘Haiku Friday’, which I discovered not too long ago and have decided to jump into the pool (hopefully not a kids poopy pool).

I am even more clueless. I wonder if I can use those plugins for Wordpress.com blogs? Santa was supposed to bring me a domain name thingy, but forgot like he does every freaking year and bought me a bluetooth mouse on Christmas eve that I despise...... Laptop on lap and cordless mouse? Recipe for disaster.... Kelley's last blog post..HOT DA-YMN!!!
