The three Dashboard widgets topping the list DashboardWidgets at the end of the day on Tuesday were:
1) Sundial, which lets you log time entries to your Basecamp account.
2) Chelsea FC, which shows today’s date in the form of 31 different Chelsea jerseys.
3) Countabout, which keeps track of the number of times things happen in your life. Things like your weight, exercise, fundraising, therapy, productivity, savings, and more.
DashboardWidgets is a Web site devoted to a complete overview of the Dashboard technology in Mac OS X 10.4 (“Tiger”) and widgets that are released daily. Dashboard is a semi-transparent layer of Tiger that zooms across your Desktop with a single button click, similar to the way Exposé works. Dashboard is home to a new kind of application called Widgets, which are mini-applications written in JavaScript and “designed for fun as well as function.”
