I can't help it!

WordPress.org discouraged me from leaving a review. They said reviews are "not for self-promotion", and "You were probably going to give it five stars anyway." I tried, I resisted, but I couldn't stop myself. It's such a darn good plugin! What do you think? Please leave us a review and tell us if you like it!
