Detect AdBlock

The Lowdown:
I have mixed feelings about this plugin but I do understand the need to get people to allow ads when surfing some websites. This is a pretty simple plugin to use and you can allow for some exceptions. Adjust the title and a custom message to maybe explain why you don't allow use of your site with adblocker. All in all looks pretty good
Rating 4 Dragons

Remove HTTP

The Lowdown:
This is a pretty easy way to solve mixed use errors on your site when you add and SSL cert. Just install and activate and it sets all links as relative vs having the http protocol in them.
Rating 4 Dragons

Highlight Bookmark Manager

Sent in by Patrick Huang
The Lowdown:
This is a pretty nice plugin to add some interactivity to your site. It allows your visitors to highlight and save specific lines in the text of your site and to then share that though their network. Setup is pretty easy it does require a 3rd party website but we are getting used to that these days. All in all not too bad I think I have it on the WP Plugins site so lets how well it works.

Better BP registration

This plugin replaces the standard BuddyPress registration process. With this plugin the registration process is split into steps and makes it more convenient, and easier to understand.
