We use a locally-hosted instance of mediawiki to support a customer service team. The manager would like to add a daily blog to the site.
Ideally, the blog articles would be a short list, maybe from the last ten days, and could be located inside a box on the main page.
Check out the WikimediaFoundation page (http://wikimediafoundation.org) for an example of this. There is a section ("Wikimedia Blog") with links to the headlines from the blog. I'm in the process of updating this so that the list of headlines will be automatically generated with RSS by adapting the RSS extension (http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:RSS) If you're interested in what I come up with, let me know.
