I've been reading
[Professional WordPress Plugin Development](http://www.wrox.com/WileyCDA/WroxTitle/Professional-WordPress-Plugin-Development.productCd-0470916222.html)
the last few weeks and I finally got around to putting some of what
I've read (a tiny bit) to use.
I've written my
[first WordPress plugin](https://github.com/ryuslash/small-recent-posts).
It's part of a larger project of mine to replace my
[[http://orgmode.org][Org-mode]] powered static site with WordPress
and learn about WordPress plugin development along the way.
Right now, it only shows the 5 latest posts, much like the widgets in
the side-bar and admin area do (except with less options I'm sure). My
plans are simple, just a number of posts and possibly a tag or
category.
For now I don't have any place for you to see it in action, but
hopefully soon. To use it just add `[[recent]]` anywhere in your post
or page. It is meant to be used in pages, but there is no technical
reason why it couldn't also be used in posts.
