Outstanding plugin

Even without a theme that displays featured images on the front or archive pages, this is still a very useful plugin. For example, I use it in combination with the Jetpack related posts module to display related videos after each video — they work great together. And with the help of the Open Graph Protocol plugin by itthinx, links in Facebook display the video thumbnails, too. Which is key, because a large percentage of the traffic to my videopoetry-focused site comes from there.
