I just picked up my Nexus S the other day and just rooted last night.

It installed SU but no recovery manager

I've downloaded CWM in the market and before I flash a recovery I have a few questions.

Are you guys using CWM or is there a better alternative like 4ext? I used 4ext when I had my Sensation and really liked it. Does it work on the Nexus S?

Thanks for the info

I rock CWR touch on my ns4g and it works great

Recently switched to TWRP, supports touchscreen just like CWM touch.
You can use Goo Manager which is similar to ROM Manager.
My favourite feature is zip queue, I can select many zips and flash them in one go.
Backup can be compressed as well.

TWRP has many other features, highly recommend to try and explore those features.
