 * I am now officially releasing WP-Dash to the public. WP-Dash is a dashboard replacement
   plugin for WordPress. It allows for drag and drop widgets and creation of 3rd-
   party widgets, so it can be as flexable and feature filled as you like. For screenshots,
   more information, documentation, and the download, visit [http://somethingunpredictable.com/wp-dash/](http://somethingunpredictable.com/wp-dash/)
 * Comments are welcome and highly appreciated. Developers are urged to make their
   own widgets and link to them on the wiki. Enjoy!

 * I’m looking forward to trying this one out!

 * Woo, already wrote my first widget for this plugin!
 * I missed not having a list of recent comments, so I wrote a widget to display
   the last 10.
 * Screenshot and a download link [are here](http://www.viper007bond.com/wordpress-plugins/recent-comments-widget-for-wp-dash/).

 * “Care to post what the feeds are (or email the URIs if you don’t want to post
   them. [bobby@somethingunpredictable.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-announce-wp-dash-10/page/2/bobby@somethingunpredictable.com?output_format=md)).
   My guess is that the feeds errored out in some way, so they were replaced.”
 * The feeds that reset are Powerline and Instapundit, both high traffic blogs so
   maybe they timed out?
 * Other MT feeds that I have worked okay so I don’t think it was a MovableType 
   problem.
 * I’m betting on them being timed out, but you’re the script writer so you prolly
   know more than me about it. In any event everything was still kosher this morning.
 * This truly is an awesome plugin.

 * eragle, I can’t seem to reproduce the problem, so for now I’m going to hope that
   the feeds were down at that moment (but I’ll still keep my eyes open for a ghost
   bug)
 * Viper, its great to see some more 3rd party widgets developed. The more widgets
   we get, the more popular the plugin itself will become because of the range of
   features.

 * Aha, I take that back, it happened to me a few minutes ago. I just uploaded a
   new version that will hopefully fix the problem until I can look into some of
   the activate/deactivate hooks more.

 * Any widget writers out there make a “linked to” plugin? That’s really the only
   thing I miss about the old dashboard, seeing where someone has linked to my blog.

 * The fix was only dashboard-rss.php
 * For the linked to, you can syndicate the feed by technorati, which is actually
   all the dashboard does to. Open a new RSS widget, and use [http://feeds.technorati.com/cosmos/rss/?url=http://somethingunpredictable.com/&partner=wordpress](http://feeds.technorati.com/cosmos/rss/?url=http://somethingunpredictable.com/&partner=wordpress)
 * except replace [http://somethingunpredictable.com/](http://somethingunpredictable.com/)
   with your blog address.

 * Viper, you read my mind. I came specifically to ask for such a widget, and lo&
   behold you’ve already done one! Thanks, going to grab it now….

 * Haha, glad to share! 🙂
 * Oh, and just thought I’d let everyone know that I’m also working on a weather
   widget. It’ll be a part of the WP plugin [WeatherIcon](http://www.sonicpling.net/archives/2005/03/12/weathericon-20/).

 * *rubs hands in glee* My my my my my – best plugin and extras EVER! I love my 
   spamkillers too, but THIS one is SPECIAL!!
 * One thing I’d like to see with the Version Check plugin would be to have it check
   to see if wp-dash is installed and if so, is the Version Check widget installed
   and running, and if so, then NOT display the normal line in the header….

 * More and more 3rd party widgets are coming in. You can see the list of all the
   ones that I know of at [http://www.somethingunpredictable.com/dash-wiki/index.php/Widgets](http://www.somethingunpredictable.com/dash-wiki/index.php/Widgets)
   and add any that aren’t listed.
