[wp-design] Shuttle Dash

[Bryan Veloso]

You think there'd be any way that we could get the authors to sort of  
specify when their post should be put on the dashboard? There are a  
lot of irrelevant posts on there so if we highlight the blogs, then  
they should be filtered a bit.

There are certainly a lot of possibilities for Dashboard Widgets, and  
I do feel that the wordpress one that is offered right now could be  
made into a really sexy shuttle style widget.


I dunno, just babbling.
