Live Blogroll will make your blogroll livelier. It will show a number of ‘recent posts’ for each link in your Blogroll using Ajax.
When the user hovers the mouse above the link, RSS feed from the site is automatically discovered and a number of recent posts is shown dynamically in a box.
Live BlogRoll uses internal caching for feed discovery and WordPress caching for RSS feeds to make sure everything is smooth for the user.
The looks of the hover box are fully customizable with CSS, and the position is editable in the options.

This plugin allows users to display their WordPress links by category through custom fields.
The following gives a step-by-step setup overview:
<ol>
<li>Enable the plugin (check the installation tab)</li>
<li>Go to the page/post where you’d like to place your links/blogroll</li>
<li>Make sure that Custom Fields are visible (on the edit page or post page click on the “Screen Options” in the top right and make sure “Custom Fields” is checked off)</li>
<li>Under CUstom fields click on the enter new link</li>
<li>Enter an ID in the “Name” field – the plugin uses the ID “display_links” as a default</li>
<li>Enter the category name of the links you’d like to display in the “Value” field</li>
<li>Click on the “Add Custom Field” button</li>
<li>Enter the following shortcode into the post content area or the widget area you prefer: <code>[links_by_cat field_id="(ID previously entered in Name field goes here)"]</code>
<ul>
<li>Note that if you used “display_links” in the Name field, you do not need to enter the “field_id” parameter in the shortcode and can simply do: <code>[links_by_cat]</code></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ol>
The shortcode also supports many other parameters for ordering and structuring your links. All parameters on the list (except “category”) found on the following page are available: https://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_list_bookmarks#Parameters
Other parameter example:
<pre><code>[links_by_cat orderby="rating"] -- This is an example using the orderby parameter from the list. The links will now be ordered by their rating.
</code></pre>
<h4>Added in 1.0.1:</h4>
The ability to display all categories has been added to the shortcode. Simply add: 
 [links_by_cat display_all]
Many bug fixes have also been introduced in version 1.0.1 as well, so please upgrade.
Currently, only one category is supported per Custom Field entry; however, I am looking to update the plugin soon so that it supports multiple categories.
