The Subscribe Sidebar plugin creates a uniform list of the most common subscribe links with icons to display in a blog’s sidebar. The plugin may be added to the sidebar by either utilizing the dynamic widgets sidebar feature or adding a few lines of code to your theme’s sidebar template. Configurable options include links for RSS 2.0, Atom, Podpress podcast Feed, add to Google Reader/Homepage, add to My Yahoo, add to iTunes, add to Zune and follow on Twitter.

The plugin was inspired by our Subscribe & Share sidebar found in the RawVoice Generator‘s program pages. RawVoice CEO Todd Cochrane wanted the same easy to find and recongize functionality of the subscribe links found on our Blubrry, TechPodcasts and PodcasterNews properties for our WordPress blogs. My (Angelo’s) answer, the Subscribe Sidebar plugin.

Unlike our Subscribe & Share list found in the RawVoice Generator, the Subscribe Sidebar plugin does not contain any share links. If you are looking for a WordPress plugin that includes this functionality, please check out Alex King’s Share This plugin.

Please let us know if you have any code improvements, suggestions, comments or thoughts.

OpenID is a distributed identity system that allows users to sign in to many websites with a single account. With OpenID, your login becomes a unique web address (URL). RawVoice did not want to add to ones list of user names and passwords. Instead, you can use an easy to obtain and remember OpenID that can be used at many other websites.

If you have a Yahoo, AOL/AIM, WordPress, LiveJournal or myOpenID account, you can sign into the PodcastFAQ.com forums today with as little as 1-click.

Microsoft, Google and other large companies have announced plans to support OpenID in the near future. RawVoice sees this as an opportunity to empower our users with the login method they feel most comfortable with, allowing RawVoice to step back from user account management to focus on its core products and services.

If you have not experienced logging into a web site using OpenID, we would like to invite you to the PodcastFAQ.com forums and give it a try.
