Yeah, that's something that vB added in the update. It's a localized version of the Activity Stream which you can see under What's New. Unfortunately there's no way to turn it off on an individual user basis. I can disable the thing for everyone, but I can't make it an individual option. I have no particular attachment to it though, so if there's a general dislike of the feature I'll remove it.
