Any Konfabulator fans in the house?

If so, I have 2 questions:

1) Do you know of any good places to get widgets other than the konfabulator website, and widgetgallery.com? I'd like to download some useful widgets, but the konfabulator site seems to be a collection of webcams, clocks and RSS aggregators. There are a couple of useful widgets there, but I got both of them ;)

2) Do you have an idea for a widget that you'd like to see, but you don't know how to make widgets and don't care to learn how?



I just made me a widget (useful only to myself), and I can see that I'm going to enjoy making some more, but I need ideas.

Well, crap. I even used this (http://www.freetranslation.com/) and I still don't know what this post says. :bubble:

I'm thinking it's about figuring out Karma and short people.

It's not just for Macs. If it was, nobody would bother making widgets.

:notworthy: Beg your pardon - it's for Macs and for OSX :ohwell:

And winders. Not sure about *n*x boxes. Actually Yahoo! just took over Konfabulator, and they call it Yahoo! Widgets. So hopefully more stuff will built soon. But for now... not much action.




No, I've never tried Dashboard. Gonna go look right now.

Konfabulator is a JavaScript runtime engine for Windows and Mac OS X that lets you run little files called Widgets that can do pretty much whatever you want them to. Widgets can be alarm clocks, calculators, can tell you your WiFi signal strength, will fetch the latest stock quotes for your preferred symbols, and even give your current local weather. :razz:
