For those of you using the online storage web service “box” there is a plugin to link shared files in a blog post very easy.

The installation is very easy thanks to the integrated installer. No other configuration has to be done.

After installation a file can be inserted into a blog post by clicking on the “Insert Box.net File…” link in the sidebar. First you have to login using your box.net account. After you have choosen the file you want to link the plugin creates a hyperlink and inserts it to your blog post.
