 * I would like to know if there is a module/plugin that enables the menu that is
   in the header of wordpress.com,
    I’ve looked around, but can’t seem to find it…
 * It’s easy, now I have to bookmark wp-admin in order to get there, can anyone 
   help me out?

 * Or, just find and download a theme that has menus added already?

 * Thank you Spencer, I though I had one of those themes, I use DUSK, and on wordpress.
   com the menu is there.
    I will read the links and see if I can find this 😛

 * Hmm, as I’m reading this, I’m suspecting this is not what I mean.
    When I log
   in on my “temporary” blog @ jo0lz.wordpress.com a blue menu bar shows up at the
   top. In the same color’s as the admin theme.
 * That bar is the same on some other blogs, so I would like to know if that is 
   possible to implement using plugin’s or hacks.

 * That menu is provided by the staff at wordpress.COM. “We” here, don’t have any
   control over the wordpress.COM stuff. You’ll have to make up your own menus, 
   through the links I provided above..
 * However, I believe there is Admin theme’s out there, that *might* do, or be like
   ya want though.. I’m just not sure about them, because I’ve never used them before..
   =/ Maybe someone else will stop by here, and explain better. 😉 =)

 * I know ya said the menu like wordpress.com in the title, I was just trying to
   avoid that at first, because I didn’t wanna suggest Hacking/tinkering with the
   wp-admin/ directory files and such.. LOL! =P

 * Ok thanks for clearing that up for me.
    I’ll try the admin plugin/hack’s that
   might do the trick. Else I’ll just have to find another way, or maybe even create
   it from scratch.
 * Last option would be a shame though, inventing the wheel all over again and such:

 * I have a vague memory of there being another one, but I can’t find it at the 
   moment

 * That’s great stuff, I can change the color’s and such I think, but that is exactly
   what I wanted!
 * Thank you guys :+ Didn’t know what it was called and what to search for, so you
   guys saved me precious time googling 😀 🙂
