I was reading online and looking through the plug-ins on Wordpress but I'm a little lost. I have a personal blog site that I would like password protected. I would give out the password to my family and friends but I'm not sure which plug-in or what to use?
You could add your friends as Users with their own username and password.
Then check out the is_user_logged_in conditional tag -- http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_user_logged_in -- and modify your theme so that the loop only runs/ the page only shows content if that conditional returns true.
I haven't had much to do with the built-in Private Posts wordpress thing, but on a post-by-post basis you could set each post you publish to Visibilty: Private. Again, I haven't played with this functionality but it would mean no plugins or theme modifications required.

Thanks for your help in advance!
