It is time for another digest of recent content on 40Tech’s Posterous site, where we post content that is too brief for this site, but too long for Twitter. Since the last digest, our Posterous site has taken a look at the following item:
Reduce Your Blog’s Bounce Rate with YARPP – Yet Another Related Posts Plugin is a WordPress plugin to inform readers of content that is related to the content they are reading. It can help you reduce your bounce rate. Bounce rate represents the percentage of initial visitors to your site who leave after visiting one page, instead of staying to visit other pages.

Since I started using this Plugin, my Blog Bounce rate has come down below 50% . I am really very happy with this plugin.

YARPP is a really great plugin but I also recommend you to show images from your related posts. By doing so there is even a better chance of people clicking on them.
I like blogs that have that. Any idea of an easy way to do it?
I actually found out about a plugin doing exactly what I was mentioning:
