The Node Queue module allows an administrator to arbitrarily put nodes in a group for some purpose; examples of this might be to highlight one particular node, as in a typical news site's Lead Article.

module not working

Author queue is not working.
(warning: array_keys() [function.array-keys]: The first argument should be an array in ...authorqueue.module on line 64.)
This module is a waste of time.

Very handy if you need custom sorting

Drupal has limited options to sort node lists. Default it is based on the sticky paramter, the creation date and the node title.

Alternatively, you can create a view based on where you can sort on a custom field, say "display order". However, maintaining the order is a tedious task, since you have to edit all the nodes for which you want to change the order.

That is where node queue comes to a resque. Via the UI you can quickly change the order. Also you can select which nodes should be added to a queue easily.

It integrates beautifully with views.
