DashboardHQ is still under construction, as we have extremely limited time to work on it (ugh!), but the good news is that things are moving along nicely.

Kris finished up some new code last night and fixed quite a few bugs as a result, so adding notes to your Dashboard now works exactly the way you'd expect it to work. The process, from start to finish, goes like this:

1) Click "Add content" to display the Add Content panel.
2) Enter a name for your new content module (or "pod", as we call it internally), and enter whatever text, HTML, or CSS you'd like to add to the pod. (Also, choose the column where you'd like to add the new pod.)
3) Click "Create" to add the new pod to your page.

Simple as that. Once your pod is created, you can edit it any time by simply clicking "Edit" in the top-right corner of the pod. The pod toggles to an input text field so you can edit freely. When you're done, just click "Update" and you're all set.
