Any suggestions about this ersatz table of contents?

I dig it. Might not have time to always *look* at it, mind, but it certainly can't hurt being there.

Thanks Inhibit and jimf.

Tagging it a "feature" makes it available via the "Features" link at the top of the page and therefore easy to find in the future. Sometimes scrolling through a list of headlines is easier than coming up with tight enough search criteria when you're looking for something.

What about including source and author information? Would that be helpful or clutter?

Unordered (as it is) or ordered (numbered) list?

Pethaps you should add the tags/groups to it as well. Not in full (takes up way too much space) but perhaps as 1-letter abbreviations or small icons. That would make it easier to "scan" the list for particular types of news.
