If you’ve noticed the NY Times or other online publications have now started using a slide out tool and thought it was pretty fancy – then you may be pleased to know (as I was) that there’s a helpful, free plugin that allows you to achieve the same effect on your WordPress blog.

I’ve tried it on this site… just scroll down and see what I mean as a helpful slide out box indicates the next article in this category.

I like it a lot – it’s called: “upPrev” and it’s available from within WordPress by searching for upPrev, or by going to the WordPress page here: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/upprev-nytimes-style-next-post-jquery-animated-fly-in-button/
