Viper007Bond has come up with a great solution to the rather messy Dashboard in Wordpress 2.5. He has created Dashboard Widget Manager. It will let you manage what feeds you want shown in your Wordpress Dashboard.
Great stuff! Just what I need when using Wordpress as a CMS for clients! 
PS: This plugin has been discontinues as Wordpress 2.7 includes this as a core feature.
It seems that the author took down the web site this Wordpress plugin was located at, so I have uploaded it on my site.

I recently installed Aksimet on one of my Wordpress installations and I was suprised to see how good it worked. Guess what? It worked wonders!
I have now deployed it to all the installations that I have been part in, as it almost stop comment spam to perfection.
