  Great idea!
As I see it, it could be a start for everything and everyone, not only 
new users.
I think good ideas of this is:
- to associate user on application\action
- to provide offline\online help
- to have all updates on one hand (new e-mails, RSS, weather, package 
updates, etc.)

So I think it could be one configurable application that provide some 
blocks.
It can be easily autostarted or not, just as user wants.
And it can help us improving distro providing feedback.

And I have an idea of creating something like first-time-tour.
New people have different wills of their new OS. They have different 
potential and knowledges about IT and etc.
So application can ask a few questions to deside where to start a tour.
So if you are a hacker you can go down exact to core, and if you just 
want to know how to browse internet and listen to music you will not see 
suck a geek stuff.
