* You have a list of links to other sites that you'd like to update occasionally without having to re-publish your entire blog
 +
* You have a list that is dynamic (like a Blogroll), but it is getting too long to aesthetically fit into your template

* You have a list of links to posts in your own blog that you'd like to update occasionally without having to re-publish your entire blog
