I am new into blogging world and I only focus on human hand written contents. Does plugins really helpful for blogs. I don't think widgets are good coz it slowers down while loading the site. I had use before but I have removed all. Now I use a news code. Any suggestion are most welcome.

I can't help but mention my own free widget from iSpeech.org that converts the text in your RSS feed to well-spoken audio, and puts a little "listen" button at the top of each post that you click to play. I'm looking for people to test the beta version, btw, so PM me if you want to help me out ;-) Also, it doesn't slow down you site.

Same here...I used the js-kit comment plugin a while back, but one of my readers complained that he couldn't comment with that, so I removed it.
