WordPress is a powerful blogging platform and a popular one indeed. Nonetheless, at its core form, it is just too naked, if you know what I mean. It takes a little bit of dressing up with some useful plugins to make it, well, less naked (read: more functional)
Since WordPress has a large community, it makes it more worthwhile for plugin developer to create one that perform a specific function or improve the existing one. Depending on your specific blogging need, there are literally thousands of plugins for your consideration.
Where do you find WordPress Plugins?
The common method to find plugins is to Google it and browse from the list of search results. Too many choices, huh?
But what happen when you couldn’t find one that serves your need?
Here comes I Want a WordPress Plugin to.. where you could find more than 450+ plugins solutions to solve your common blogging problems and all broken down into its own categories in a manner of a directory.
I Want a WordPress Plugin to..
All you need to do is to zoom into the category and click on it where it will bring you the list of all the plugins. It’s that simple. You may also contribute by suggesting more plugins to add to the list, though every single submission is done manually which is kind of time consuming on the part of the owner.
Though it may not be the best source of plugins yet, its simplicity is commendable. If it can build a user-generated community with auto submission, I will place my bet on it.
Now to help you simplify the process of installing a plugin, I would recommend you to use OneClick Installer. A simple yet effective one-click plugin installer that will change the way you setup your next plugin.

@Stephan: Thanks for your wonderful comment. I have been using it quite often lately myself. I reckon given time it will be a one-stop place for WP plugins.
I do hope they will change the interface to make it more web 2.0 and build a community around it, something like iusethis.com
