what about these widgets being linked to parent lenses ?
clicking on them or on a link "more" would take you to the lenses.
so in essence these widgets would act as "previews" of the lenses you want in
one screen.
i like the idea of adding lens previews to the home in the form of
blocks/widgets :)
would be cool to improve the API to do that.

I think that we should use the space for something

like a widget space, riiiight?
this could be easily achieved by using the
Launcher API in the Dash.
there would be enough space for all
high-interest statuses such as email, instant
messaging & call services, progress on system
update or filetransfer or filedownloads and a
visual way of indicating, how many windows the
browser has open.
Yeah right...
Plus more such as weather or a calender.
weather i don't know, i'd like it, personally, but some
might not.
But Calendar, yes, calendar is one important feature that
has yet to be properly implemented in the free Desktop
Environment.
at least a live indication of the next appointment today
and a proper date showing the day of the week.
Of course you can set everything as you like. In my opinion in the
USC a widget section and their you can install and remove them as
you like...
Pre-installed I would like to see
-Calender
-Facebook/Twitter/...
-Email
-Weather
-events or things to do for the next week
-Music
-news (based on google? news or a local service?)
