I'm still trying to wrap my head around some basic ideas.  I appreciate 
the patience that has been extended my way already.

Having pounded through the tutorial, I have a decent idea of how the 
poll app works, with a URL being associated with a function in the Poll 
app's view.  That function then does its business, including indicating 
how to render the page through some template, etc.  (And of course 
there's a whole lot more going on, most of which I hope to understand 
some day.)

Where I am stuck now is with the idea of a page that displays a little 
of this and a little of that, a collection of widgets and blocks of 
content, a page that doesn't clearly belong to something like the 
tutorial's Poll app, but might display the newest poll, the newest 5 
news items, a few photos from a gallery, etc.  What would sort of 
function/view might the URL for that page be associated with?  It 
doesn't feel like there would be a specific app just for doing that kind 
of aggregating, but the mental map I am carrying around so far seems to 
require it. Would I just make (an arbitrary(?)) choice to put a function 
that kicks things off *somewhere* and then get to a template that does 
some inclusion of other templates? I hope I'm explaining myself well. 
Thanks again.

Dave
