About Me is a plugin for WordPress that creates a new widget to display your user profile and latest tweets. Let your visitors and users know who is behind your site or give a quick explanation about what your site is and what it can do for your users.
Check the last widget at the right sidebar in the site pointed by the Live Preview link.
- Display your username linked to a custom URL .
- Show your Gravatar.
- Introduce yourself with a biography or a quick pitch about your business.
- Text block supports WordPress’ shortcodes.
- Display your latest tweets (with cache for tweets).
- Add multiple widget for several user profiles.

Since it’s a widget, you can not only use it in your sidebars but also with a PHP call or even in your post or page content.
The biography/quick pitch text supports WordPress’ shortcodes and HTML . The demo shows how you can embed a Google Maps iframe and have your map shown in the site but you could also embed your YouTube video podcast!
If you have a Twitter account, you can also display your latest tweets from your timeline and even cache them for an specified time amount in case Twitter goes down.
