Eight Great Dashboard Widgets
I have decided rather than work anymore tonight, I'd browse the latest widgets that I can add to my dashboard. This is what is called an "uninspired blog entry." Basically, it's a cheat because I'm feeling too lazy to actually come up with something of my own, so I'm going to use the best of things other people have come up with. Don't hold it against me. You may love these widgets as well. Here we go!
#1 - "Sing That iTune"
This widget displays the lyric for iTunes current track along with its artwork. The lyrics are saved in “Documents/Sing that iTune!” folder and you can also add your self-made lyrics in there. Sync the folder with iPod’s Notes folder to bring it. Option to save lyrics in music files is also available.
#2 - Plasma Tube - The Motion Light Widget
Engineered Like No Other. The Plasma Lamp Leaves your grampas old Motion Light in the 60’s! We’ve filled this sucker with a material patented exclusively to innermindMedia. This Plasma is like no liquid you’ve ever seen and it simply defies the laws of gravity and physics. This is the ultimate Eye Candy for your Os X Dashboard
