From the makers of the Screenshot Plus Widget, comes the Desksaver Plus widget. Desksaver Plus doesn’t act as a widget, but more like a utility or a preference pane. Desksaver Plus allows you to choose a screensaver, then it turns your desktop into that screensaver. For example, run the RSS screensaver on your desktop, and […]

SingPod allows people to obtain lyrics from the […]

I just a found the greatest widget on the Apple Dashboard directory. It’s called Go Go Redball!. This widget acts as a rubber bouncy ball, where you can throw it and bounce it across the screen. It is very, very realistic, and a lot of fun.

A problem with some of us, is that we don’t buy all of our songs from the iTMS, and maybe we had music before the iTMS. I like the album art feature in iTunes, where it will display the album art in the visualizer, the window, and an iPod. But, I need to find a […]

TUAW reviews a great widget, Screenshot Plus, another screen capture widget, but seems to be a lot better than the Capture widget, which I have reviewed earlier.
