 * After installing on my site yesterday, my homepage went blank. On checking inside
   my WP dashboard, there was a message telling me that PHP version 5.3 is required
   for the plugin to work and mine is only PHP version 5.2. Not sure if it would
   be a good move, I uninstalled the plugin. Wonder why such things are not mentioned
   up front.
