Thanks so much for the mention! Technorati Rank Version 1.0.9 is ready with some better HTML Validation. As well, I’m working on expanding this with some display options. The tough part of this plugin was ensuring it cached properly so it didn’t burn up Technorati’s API.

I installed the Webvirtue Doubleclick Meaning plugin which is great stuff. Using “The Free Dictionary” on its own, there are no ads. So when I use it through the plugin, where do the ads come from?

I didn’t contact them.

They are commercial as well as outsourcing guys and threw open a package of plugins for old WP versions at once.

Some viral marketing, I guess

@Mikhail
Did you let the plugin author know so that they could address the issue?

Beware about Webvirtue’s Plugins.

They put a humble line: “This Wordpress plugin has been tested with Wordpress 2.0.5″

Guess what?

After TellAFriendPost and PromotePost were installed in WP 2.1.2 all buttons in Visual Editor had disappeared.
I was forced to delete those plugins.
