    Konfabulator! Widgets for Windows!!!

    Stardate 3823.7

    Weather Widget... (Only ONE of MANY Widgets available..)

    This is very cool. Konfabulator! is a shareware piece of software that allows you to place objects on your desktop for almost any purpose. There are clocks, utilities, sports tickers, news tickers, calenders... you name it! They can be placed anywhere on your desktop and can be set to semi-transparent etc... lots of options. They don't seem to be taking up too much memory either, and right now I have:

    • Digital clock - Set the colors and even moon phases...
    • Stardate - either TOS, TNG or both!
    • CPU usage meter - Cool to watch your CPU max out when doing things :D
    • Weather - Local weather updates plus more!
    • Calender - self-explanatory...
    • Picture Frame - Can display at a set size, and randomly changes... cool!

    I think I might try a reminder list too. Check it out though! It's fun, looks great, and a free trial (gives an annoying reminder window...) :D
