Announcement aggregator?
Is there a way to pull all announcements from specified sites (in a collection) into a display of announcements at the root site? I know that a Content Query WP can be used to aggregate lists, but I want my Announcement Aggregator to look just like the normal presentation of Announcements in a web part.

Thank you for the suggestion Kris; I have an idea where I might use that functionality elsewhere in my site. But as for an Announcement aggregator, I want it to "look" like the announcement display, with the body of the announcement, the author etc. I need to be able to do this through the UI, maybe in Designer if not too complex.There are no mistakes; every result tells you something of value about what you're are trying to accomplish.
