Ever looked at the ease with which you can add status updates on Facebook and Google+ and thought “I want that on my site”?

Well, that is what this simple but effective plugin does!

Quick status adds that functionality to WordPress.

Post Status from your dashboard or front-end

Status makes it easy to post directly from your WordPress dashboard and from your front-end. Like Facebook, you can choose the thumbnail you wish to use and also edit the title and description.

And see it quickly turned into this…

You can post video, links, and images by inserting the URL which feeds the description and images straight to your website.
