Currently it allows visitors dropping by your blog to ‘like’ your posts if they find it interesting. Of  course only once, they can unlike it if the did so by mistake or just to play around with this awesome feature.

Now the big question- Can I track who liked my post?

Well yes.. if the user is a registered member of your site 0_O  // work being done on this folks, any ideas? chip in..

You can download the 1.0 beta bits of the WP likes plugin from here.

Upload the extracted zip folder to your wp-content/plugin directory of your blog. It will automatically appear in the plugin section of your Admin Panel, simply activate it from there.

In the next coming days I will work on packaging it even better and get it to the wordpress directory.

[UPDATE 1 ] The plugin is available directly from wordpress directory- http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-likes/ jQuery is now fetched in its best form(minified,GZIPed, ~20kb) at lightening speed from Google servers. The jQuery dependency will fade away in future releases.

[UPDATE 2] The version 1.1 is released with a lot of critical fixes, please give it a shot again if it was failing previously.

[UPDATE 3] Just commited the 2.0 version to the svn repo. Brings you a lot of customization, dashboard stats widget and sidebar. Will make a new post soon about it, till then take it for ride and keep the feedback coming!
