Promote MDN WordPress Plugin
I'm very happy to share with you the Promote MDN WordPress plugin, created by Mozilla Web Developer Luke Crouch. The Promote MDN plugin analyzes your blog post content and links prominent development keywords to the Mozilla Developer Network. MDN is the best resource for learning about new and advanced browser APIs, front-end techniques, and just about everything else.
From a writer's perspective, I look forward to installing this plugin because it will allow me to talk about APIs without having to explain each in detail. The plugin will also be helpful in implicitly encouraging readers to explore each topic further. If you have a blog, give this plugin a shot -- your readers will be grateful!

click actions from doing...
![MooTools & Printing – Creating a Links Table of Contents]()
One detail we sometimes forget when considering print for websites is that the user cannot see the URLs of links when the page prints. While showing link URLs isn't always important, some websites could greatly benefit from doing so. This tutorial will show you...
