+Sorry for the lack of Blog posts lately, but
+[my new job](http://horseandcountry.tv) that I started a few weeks ago has
+certainly been keeping me busy! I've got a few more posts that I'm preparing
+content for, and I'll hopefully be back into my weekly-post routine before too
+long!
+
+Today, I'd like to just give a quick overview of the
+[Admin:hover](http://drupal.org/project/admin_hover) module. It basically adds
+an administrative menu that pops up when you hover over a node or block within
+your Drupal website - the kind of functionality that was present within previous
+versions of the [Admin module](http://drupal.org/project/admin). It also
+integrates well with the [Devel](http://drupal.org/project/devel) and
+[Clone](http://drupal.org/project/node_clone) modules.
+
+I've found this to be extremely useful whilst working on photo galleries etc.
+where multiple nodes are displayed in a grid format and I quickly need to
+publish or unpublish something for testing purposes. No longer do I need to open
+each node, or go into the administration area to perform the required actions.
+
+It is also possible to customise which links are available from within the
+adminstration area. The possible selections that I currently have on this site
+are as follows:
+
+**Node links:**
+
+- Edit
+- Publish
+- Unpublish
+- Promote
+- Unpromote
+- Make sticky
+- Make unsticky
+- Delete
+- Clone
+- Dev load
+- View author
+- Edit author
+- Add
+
+**Block links:**
+
+- Configure block
+- Add block
+
+Although, as I have additional contributed modules installed, some of these may
+not neccassaily be available out of the box.
