Ask HN: Any examples of solid UI/UX design for an admin interface?

[oziumjinx]

We're in the midst of redesigning our backend admin interface for an advertising related startup and would love to see some slick dashboard designs for some inspiration. Got any references, links, sites worth checking out?

ThemeForest Admin Templates is a good start.

This was on HN a couple days ago, it's a full Rails plugin, but I thought the design/output was really solid:

Nearlyfree webmail's is very nice imo. kijin just announced it in the nearlyfreespeech forums a few days ago: https://github.com/kijin/nearlyfreemail

The recently posted show HN for that analytics site was very slick and sharp as well.

Love Dribbble for stuff like this: http://dribbble.com/search?q=admin&x=0&y=0

I saw this at Google IO (vaadin.com). I know it's in Java but it's a solid set of templates/controls/widgets that seems great for admin interfaces.

Google analytics is not bad, actually.
