Yahoo Widgets, what is on your desktop?

[FortFunFoSho]

Any favorite widgets worth mentioning?

 

[jpthomas]

I just downloaded it as well. So far I am using mostly built in widgets from yahoo (digital clock, maps, to do list, weather) but I also downloaded one of the gmail notifier widgets. Any other good custom ones that I should download?

I got it when it was called Konfabulator (it's the same thing, right?). I have the weather thing and a stock ticker. I originally had much more, but I realized I never used them.

 

[talyn00]

drive space monitor, clock, weather, calendar

My guess is just added the trendy name. I did find a pretty neat Doom widget, but the novelty wore off quickly, and I already have Forecast Fox, (FF plugin), so it was uninstalled pretty quickly. I like only having 1 icon on the desktop myself.

I have it on one of my other computers, but I never seem to use it. Same thing goes with the widgets in Mac OS X... They're pretty, but not all that useful. I have a weather forcasts and stock quotes on my home page, and those were the only two widgets that I ever found helpful.

I just downloaded them amd I put it on a sweet Desktop and it all matches.

How stable is Konfabulator?

I want something lean, efficient, not bloated and stable.

 

[Liviathan]

Use the stock, CPU, weather.

It's free now that Yahoo owns it, yeah. The widget search tool kinda sucks now, though.

The xm radio widget is killer.

 

[monk3y]

I'm going to have to give this a shot.

 

[EKKC]
