## Description

This plugin is a really simple and quick plugin that puts the hostname of the server
that the page was viewed from. This is useful if you are hosting your blog on many

as a HTML comment in the source code where the footer is. Now there isn’t many reasons
you may use this for but for the ones that do want to use it, here it is.
