I made a few updates to the site, mostly focusing on updating the home page sidebar to have some actual information. The old side bar was just place holder text from the tutorial I found, but the new side bar is populated with the last (3) comments made on the …

To make the addin, I followed Jeremy's examples on his website. Big thanks to him and his …
