READEME FIRST

This is a Wordpress plugin I wrote for a site I was working on. I have not got
the time or inclination at this point to upload this to wordpress.org as a plugin
and have to support it there.

I'm happy for bug reports, ideas and suggestions but I can't provide any real
support hence me uploading to github only and not wordpress.org

I also think the plugin needs renaming as it clashes with a similar named plugin
that does something slightly different with a facebook/wordpress link
