 Same here, except I also have a dblock that links to my most recently
modified files to remind myself what I was working on last.

In .emacs I have:

(defun org-dblock-write:recently-modified (params)
  (insert (mapconcat (lambda (arg) (concat "[[file:" arg "][" arg "]]" ))
(split-string (shell-command-to-string "ls -t ~/org *.org | head -5"))
"\n")))

and my startup page looks like this:
--------------------------
# -*- eval: (org-update-all-dblocks) -*-

...my stuff...

#+BEGIN: recently-modified
#+END
