Hello and welcome to beautiful Lee McKusick.

Plugins

The [re]birthing pains seem to be abating, and one of the things that I’m really enjoying about Wordpress is the idea of plugins: the little modules that you can add to your site to increase functionality.

The ones I’m currently using are:
Admin Favicon - Automatically adds a favicon (The icon next to the address in the address bar.)
All in One SEO Pack
FeedBurner FeedSmith
Hello Dolly - Originally gives lyrics from Hello Dolly in the admin pages, but tweaked to provide select Shakespeare quotes instead.
Twitter Tools - So glad I’m able to pipe Twitter into here.

Any other suggestions?

Yes! I haven’t bought my own domain yet. Do I need to do that to watermark my pictures? I don’t suppose you know how to watermark pictures…

From what I can tell, you have to host your own Wordpress blog to be able to use plugins, and to watermark your pictures automatically you would need your own domain.
Fortuantely, it’s super easy to set up, and fairly cheap. My current host is 1and1.com, but I’ve heard GoDaddy.com is good to. (Also, promo code TRS1 gets 10% off. Thanks Revision3!)
