Joomla Plugins are also known as Mambots (for Mambo). Plugins allow extension of the core and dynamic processes in Joomla and Mambo during runtime (page load).
Joomla Tagbot is a mambot/plugin that gives visitors to your site the ability to bookmark any article (content item) in one of the many Bookmark or Tagging sites such as Digg.com, Furl.net, Spurl.net, Del.icio.us etc. This is a quick release the fixes the bug in version 1.0.6 Beta 1:

Change Log: 1.0.6 Beta 7.1

Change Log: 1.0.6 Beta 1
Added a Cache to lessen memory usage. Now the Tagsite XML config files are cached and only "re-parsed" if you make a change to the xml files.
Added configuration option 'Display Position' to allow tagbot to
render inside of the main content section, as well as outside it. This
works in conjunction with the 'Display Location' property so that tagbot
can render at the top, bottom, or both.
Reworked a substantial portion of the code to make it easier to
maintain, as well as implement the new feature.
Significant amounts of configuration data were being cached in
memory multiple times. This has been removed.
If the custom CSS option was selected, it would only be included if
you selected to render the tags before the content, or both before and
after the content. If you only selected to render the tags after the
content, the default CSS would ALWAYS be used.
Geshibot is a mambot for Mambo, plugin for Joomla, that highlights code within content items (articles).
Why Use Geshibot
As you may know, Joomla and Mambo now already have a bot called Geshi, that is used for highlighting PHP Syntax, or other language syntax. However, I found the Geshi Mambot/Plugin to be lacking quite a few features.
Geshibot, fills this in.
Geshibot Features:
Uses the Geshi Syntax Higlighting Class from Geshi Project
Allow highlighting of syntax in multiple formats, php, xml, html4strict, javascript, etc.
Show or not show line number.
Show fancy line numbers
Load Joomla/Mambo Styles into highlighted syntax (uses JavaScript to add Joomla CSS Classes)
Show a Pure Source Code Links that opens source in new window, with no formatting
Show links to function/element references in highlighting
Loads CSS Classes so you can define your own CSS if needed.
The PHP Speedy Plugin for Joomla will install PHP Speedy, as well as allow you to configure each of its settings through the Plugin parameters.
PHP Speedy is a PHP library designed to optimize the download speed of your PHP website. It merges multiple JavaScript and CSS files into a single file, minifies them, and also uses Gzip for on the fly compression of the HTTP output.
