There is a template tag from within wordpress that lets you put it links in your sidebar.
You could create a PHP page and use that template tag — that way you wouldn’t need to get a plugin.

I just found it, thank you. Now on to my next question:
How would I go about dividing the links in to two divs (subsequently making them a left and right column) and then alternately placing the link categories into a column. Thus giving the links two columns to populate rather than one long skinny one?
Have two instances of the links template tags — but pass different arguments to each. There should be a way of selecting which category of links you pull links from. Read up on the tag itself in the codex, it should all be there.

I can’t believe I waited this long to give wordpress a go. Thank you so much. Codex is like my new php.net 😉
I first learnt PHP by using WordPress 😀 it’s great, it will always have a special place in my heart…
