Show off your Inner Geek with a WordPress Plugin

A couple months ago we launched a WordPress plugin that would allow you to displaying server statistics on your website. It’s awesome, it’s dorky, and it’s what makes geeks, super geeks. Of course, our road to plugin land had some bumps but now it’s ready to rock and roll. This past week, we launched a new version of the plugin and fixed all the bugs. The plugin also works great with Windows, Mac, or Linux platforms, no worries there.

What is this great WordPress plugin you ask? It shows statistics of what your hosting server is doing. You can find out if your host is really as great as it should be. This WordPress plugin is light and versatile and can be fitted to a sidebar on the homepage only or just on one page you choose. The Server Info Plugin, or as I call it Great Geek Plugin, is also user friendly because it fits in nicely with well built themes and is not bulky. Features can be adjusted in your WordPress control panel, under Settings.

Oh, we should mention that after you upload the plugin, you will have to activate BOTH plugin types on the control panel of WordPress. It is weird, but do that and everything will work fine.

Here is some of the information you can find out about your server:
System Vital Information:
Kernel Version
Distribution name
Uptime

Hardware Information:
Processors
CPU speed
BUS speed

Memory usage:
Physical Memory
Free
Used
Total

You can pick and choose what fields you want to show to visitors and where you want to place it on your blog or website. Check out the Server Info Plugin out and if you have comments or questions, post a comment here.
