    Hey Guys,

    I'm looking for plugin which will display the latest featured posts on top of my index page. Something similar to this - http://technogra.ph/

    Thanks in advance!

    Of course defining what constitues 'featured posts' is the a big part of the equation.

    You can use a shortcode:
    http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/show-posts-shortcode/

    You can use the sticky post feature when you write a post (in the Publish module, in the visibility section)

    You can put code in your theme's index.php template to retrieves and displays those posts. See example:
    http://www.daobydesign.com/blog/2007/07/modifying-wordpress-front-page/

    Or you can use a plugin such as http://rmarsh.com/plugins/recent-posts/ (requires the Post Plugin Library plugin also)
