[wp-hackers] WordPress E-Commerce

[Kokarn]

Just wanted to be the third for WooCommerce.

Work professionally as a web developer and have experience with both wp
e-commerce and woo commerce and the woo really comes out on top. Great
community behind it, great features, easy to use and easy to extend.

Solid choice for any webshop imho.
