+1 Sonny, I really like the concept. I like you integrated the dashboard in and made me thing about how that by maybe reusing some of the icon with the sections as well it could really help tie the project site into the product.
That started making me wonder if the dashboard framework would actually work for making a consistent portal front page as well. Each section would have it's own area and as people used the website they would also be learning how to use the product. Might be a little far fetched but wanted to throw it out there.
