hey

noting all the related projects i could find for a comparison:
* Total Admin Control - allows creating multiple dashboards, with a set of conditions and content/blocks/views/cck fields/widgets. very complex because it's based on Chaos Tools
* Homebox - allows creating multiple dashboards with blocks and views blocks
* Dashboard allows creating multiple dashboards (but not per account) for admins to use, containing blocks (very buggy)
* User Dashboard - allows creating a dashboard with limited options
* Dashboard for users - allows creating dashboards per user, using blocks (couldn't get it to work)

Total Admin Control is by far the best imo.
it's also the most complex...

forgot to mention Panels next to Chaos tools for total admin control.

Thanks for the comparison.

I get so frustrated trying to learn modules, but once I do the most complex ones seem best if they are solid. Once I get my site done I am going to do some tutorials.

I'm not sure this should be filed as as issue. It might be better places as a forum topic, or on groups.drupal.org as a wiki page.

you are correct.

but i also posted in hopes of alerting the developers for what else is out there.
maybe you could absorb ideas from the other projects ;)

there's too many modules around... many abandoned too

Probably worth mentioning g.d.o similar module review page here: Comparison of Dashboard modules.

@jenlampton maybe a good idea to add that link on the project page as well?
