Matthew Holger sent in his Linkblock widget. This is how he described it:
Don't know if anything like this has crossed your way yet or not, but I created a "Linkblock" widget that can be instantiated up to nine times (it's derived from the "Text" widget included with the widget source), has a configurable title, and displays only links from a specified category using the parameters defined for that link category in the WP Admin interface.
Makes managing items in the widget bar a bit more configurable, and made it much easier for me to hide categories I don't want displayed, without having to make code changes. Yay!

Fantastic widget plug-in! Thanks! May I push a little bit more?? Is there a way to add more than 9 links boxes??

Can I find this download elsewhere? The link no longer works.
