## Description

This plugin does two things to your dashboard:

 * The WordPress News and Other WordPress News sections are removed. You don’t even
   load them. Why? So you won’t have to bother
    with the AJAX call for the news.
   Also, it looks neater.
 * The sidebar (with incoming links, recent posts, etc.) is made more horizontal,
   with four columns instead of the default one.
    This makes it so you can see all
   the information at one glance, rather than having to scroll down.

## Screenshots

 * The new dashboard. Cleaner, neater, and did I mention cleaner?

## Installation

 1. Upload `cleaner-dashboard.php` to the `wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in the WordPress admin.
 3. Go to your dashboard, and enjoy its cleanliness!

## FAQ

  What if we miss an update because the news is not there anymore?

No worry. If you’re on WordPress 2.3 or above, then update checking is already in
WordPress and a separate notification will
 be given to you.
