Great! That was fast!

I think it would be preferable to make this more prominent still, but
it's great improvement for now. Certainly, it will actually impress
anyone interested in Gitlab software or Gitlab.com to see all the
projects that are already there and be able to browse and see how it all
works. I think it should be one of the primary headers in the navigation
really.

It would still be nice to be able to search the projects without being
logged in.
