Picks Of The Week:

Jeff – Advanced Exporter For WordPress and WordPres MU – This plugin adds the type of functionality I’ve been expecting out of the WordPress exporter ever since I learned about the process. With it, you can easily export a single category of a blog to import into another. You can also use the restrictions to create multiple WXR files in case you can’t import a single large file. Also worthy of note as that this plugin was entered into the WeblogToolsCollection plugin competition for 2009.

Kim – website, tastykitchen.com excellent example of BuddyPress in action.
