More Fun with the WP Admin Bar : The Admin Bar Hopper Plugin

One quick plugin (that I just created) (download the plugin here) to add a "Hop To..." dropdown to your new WP Admin Bar, which gets filled with a list of all your site's Pages, Menus, and (Post) Categories.

Check it out on WordPress.org.

PPC Campaigns Get a Boost with Optimized Landing Pages
