A list of the little bits and pieces I have put together. Why not have a look and tell me what you think?

Magento Google Apps and Gmail extension

This Magento extension makes it very easy to set up a Google Apps or Gmail account for use with Magento outbound emails. It saves all of the SMTP setup you’d have to do with other solutions. Read more about using Magento with Google Apps or Gmail.

Magento SMTP Pro extension

This Magento extension is created for expert users who need full control of the Magetno SMTP server settings. You can control authentication, security and specify your own host and port. The extension supports self testing and Magento newsletters.

Magento Sitemap Submit extension

I’ve made an Magento extension for submitting your store sitemap to Google, Yahoo, Ask and Bing called Sitemap Submit. My new extension can submit automatically whenever the sitemap is regenerated, or on-demand from the admin UI. You can get the extension over at Magento Connect.

Magento Store Monitor

I created a very simple Magento store monitor powered by Google Apps. It’s very easy to use, and doesn’t cost anything! It will check your store is up and running every hour and send you an email if it detects that it is failing. You can set up your own monitoring in about 30 seconds. Why not?

Magento Parade

There is a thriving community of Magento designers and developers building innovative stores. Magento Parade is a showcase for that ecommerce innovation. Review and rate stores, offer comments on store design elements and for site designers get some positive feedback on your work. I built this site on the Wordpress platform, using just basic plugins and a simple theme. I really like Wordpress, it’s a clean easy to use platform.
