Some things I really _wouldn't_ want on my blog: 1) a big, flashy clock - just about every PC shows the current time in the task bar already, don't overdo it. 2) users online: this is irrelevant, it doesn't make the content of the blog any better by showing how many users you currently have online. 3) a seperate plugin for digg: it's already included in your nr8 - bookmarker plugin. And why not add the FeedBurner plugin? It's an easy link to your XML/RSS feed, and shows the popularity of your blog in one quick glance.
