WP Daily was launched just a few months ago but it continues to impress me. As far as I am concerned it is the destination for WordPress news. It’s a good thing we’re not competing with them on that front!

Why am I saying this? Well, in this month’s links mashup I have featured no less than three WP Daily pieces — an impressive proportion. While there are certainly other brilliant WordPress websites out there, these are the guys that are really owning it at the moment and I would strongly recommend that you subscribe.

Elsewhere, we have a bit of a social media flavored infographic section, so if you’re into Facebook, Twitter and friends, read on!
