deuz Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 i know vista has a 'thing' called widgets, where you have those pop-up-things on your screen that tell you the time and headlines from certain sites and other stuff. i heard that xp can have the same thing, so i googled and found the yahoo widget engine but looking through the forums it's apprenlty crap....so i was wondering is this the only one out there or are there other programs which do the same thing and work well.... cos all i want its the clock up on the screen and another one which i can put reminders in... all help is appreciated. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 On Vista they are called Gadgets (don't ask why). Try out Konfabulator - It is by Yahoo and it is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jamesyfx Subscriber² Posted March 23, 2009 Subscriber² Share Posted March 23, 2009 Yahoo Widget Engine is your best bet buddy. You're not going to find anything better other than upgrading to Vista/7 or going OS X. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
