Recently, a friend asked me what I recommended for a super simple Google Maps plugin. I didn’t have a good answer. Plugins I’d seen were either just widgets, or had too much going on. Somehow I had overlooked Pippin Williamson’s Google Maps Shortcode plugin. It’s simple, caches the maps with the transients API, and works with any Google Map.

Lightweight plugins tend to be overlooked. Simple is good and this one is a gem. Transient caching of maps is not only thoughtful, but responsible, which makes it beautiful on the inside too.
