IndieWeb for WordPress!
The IndieWeb Plugin for WordPress helps you establish your IndieWeb identity by extending the user profile to provide rel-me and
h-card fields and optionally adding widgets to display this. It also includes a bundled installer for a core set of IndieWeb-related plugins. It’s
meant to be a one-stop shop to help WordPress users quickly and easily join the growing IndieWeb movement (see below).
Some of these plugins allow you to:
The IndieWeb is a people-focused alternative to the ‘corporate web’ that allows you to be the hub of your own web presence. It’s been written about in Wired, The Atlantic, Slate, and Gigaom amongst others.
When you post something on the web, it should belong to you, not a corporation. Too many companies have gone out of business and lost all of their users’ data. By joining the IndieWeb, your content stays yours and in your control.
Your articles and status messages can be syndicated to all services, not just one, allowing you to engage with everyone in your social network/social graph. Even replies and likes on other services can come back to your site so they’re all in one place.

One could certainly download, install, and activate some or all of these plugins separately, picking and choosing features as needed, but it is much quicker and easier to utilize the interface provided by this IndieWeb plugin to install and activate them.
