My take on how "What's New?" should be done

I guess it would depend how clever you are (and I'm not very!).

You already have the "All" tab loading by default, so that's your page load right there. The trick would be in using the other tabs to AJAX-load the same search result but with the non-required content types filtered out somehow. Rather than loading four separate searches all at once.

I'm sure it could be done but it's way beyond me. I've never really worked with AJAX.
