Yes, the body part takes the 6 latest messages from the Announcements forum. I also have a WOL SSi included in there.

First the portal requires two doors: one where you are (preferably), and one in some other distant land or time. You should have some idea of what land or time you will be going to, cuz it's really embarassing when you get there and don't have a clue. Then you have to know the correct word or phrase or key of some other type that unlocks the portal. In order to know this, it usually helps to know the creator of the portal. Once you have the key and have successfully unlocked the portal, just step through and hope you don't turn into some dinosaur's lunch. Hope this helps. ---Jamin

Put on the page any UBB hack that has a SSI call. Stuff like Statistics, Active topics, UBB News etc.

So good usability is just throwing in every available thing?

I think that making them available is a good thing. Postnuke allows you to turn the "blocks" on and off as well as allowing you to put them on the left or right side and adjust their order top to bottom. A good portal would give the users the ability to choose which options they use.

Well thats a good idea if he could code it so they can choose what features are allowed. But then again he could use Post Nuke Matt, Not nessecerely, but he wants more things in his portal.

No, actually, usability is not plopping a bunch of junk into a table and calling it a portal. I'd wait for UBB Portal.
