<p>WP Social Blogroll adds a social blogroll to your blog. It will follow and display all updates of the sites in your blogroll. See the <a href="http://www.weinschenker.name/plugin-feed-reading-blogroll/" title="visit the development blog" rel="nofollow ugc">plugin page</a> or the <a href="http://www.weinschenker.name/" title="visit the development blog" rel="nofollow ugc">author’s page</a> for more details.</p>
<p>See this <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/feed-reading-blogroll/screenshots/" title="example of the WP Social Blogroll" rel="ugc">screenshot</a> for example.</p>
<p>The plugin retrieves the date of the most recent feed-item of the bookmarked site. The feeds must be indexed by Google as the plugin uses <a href="http://code.google.com/apis/ajaxfeeds/" title="Google AJAX Feed API" rel="nofollow ugc">Google’s free AJAX Feed API</a>.</p>
<p>You no longer need a <a href="http://code.google.com/apis/ajaxfeeds/signup.html" title="Google API Key" rel="nofollow ugc">Google API Key</a> to get it to work. If you own an API key, you can use it. But providing a key is optional.</p>
<p>Based on Google’s information, the age of the most recent feed-item is calculated and then displayed under each bookmark in your sidebar.</p>
<p><strong>Your blogroll can be sorted by the freshness of the bookmarks.</strong></p>
<p>Furthermore, the title and author of the freshest post and an icon for each bookmark can be displayed.</p>
