When I saw how this plugin function, my mind goes wow! My eyes immediately become wide open. This is the first time that a wordpress plugin can capture my attention.I am really fascinated with this plugin known as Apture Plugin.

This plugin allows keywords in your articles to be connected to Wikipedia, YouTube, Google Maps, Royalty Free Pictures, music and more from 50+ sources of content with one click.

Apture allows 2 methods to connect to the above resources. One of the methods is hyperlink. When you click on the hyperlink word, it will pop up a small resizable window to the resource that I link it to ( eg wikipedia, YouTube, etc). I like this method best as reader can still continue to read my blog.

You can see how hyperlink works
Click on the word blog. It will display a small window containing information from Wikipedia.

You click on this word Wordpress plugin, a small YouTube video screen appears.

Actually I have link the words to the selected resources.

Another method is known as embedding. It will display a resource fully( eg Wikipedia, YouTube, etc)
