Konfabulator uses?

The Dashboard weather widget is useful to me. It gives a 5-day forcast, plus I can have both the Liverpool and London weather open. So I can gloat to my parents about how good the London microclimate can be :-)

I have used it for some time. Of course, I have the weather module (enjoy at a glance to see what the real world is like, also can tell if it is night or day :) ). My favorite is the "stickies" widget. At this moment I have five stickes (three on one monitor and two on the other) that are my reminders. I have them set to different colors for category and priority. VERY handy! Worth the RAM and CPU! Rocky <>< My Blog[^]

I'm rather looking forward to the Microsoft one. I can't wait to build some 'Gadgets' to replace some of my call-centre 'wallboard' apps. It'll be great to finally have these available from the desktop without having to launch other applications. Michael CP Blog [^] Development Blog [^]
If you are interested in building .NET Gadgets, you might want to look at this calculator[^] and analog clock. I am still trying to understand if .NET will integrate well into the whole Gadget idea. check out VG.net: www.vgdotnet.com An animated vector graphics system integrated in VS.net

I don’t run it all of the time only when I suspect especially foul weather. Now MP3Pal on the other hand needs a couple of features to make it a fully useful app. :) ------------------------------- DEBUGGING : Removing the needles from the haystack.

My thoughts exactly. Maybe they are holed up inside and can't see what the weather is like. :suss: In which case, why would they want to know? :~ Cheers, Vikram.

That site does not provide much information regarding .NET gadgets. It sounds very generic, and the samples are simple html interfaces. The [Ooey GUI blog](<a href=)[^], by one of the MS developers, may provide more information soon. check out VG.net: www.vgdotnet.com An animated vector graphics system integrated in VS.net
