Hi!For Macintosh users with the current operating system, I've created a dashboard widget that searches CollectSpace. You can pick it up at http://www.raykatz.com/ncc/ P.S. - Robert: I've used the actual CollectSpace logo on the widget; if you don't like this, let me know and I'll remove it... |

Ray, not only don't I mind - I think its very cool! I have a small collection of space-themed widgets but this one jumps to the top of the list as my favorite (for what should be obvious reasons). Thanks! |

Any prospects for the rest of us non-MAC users to benefit from your work?------------------

It's possible to make a widget for PCs. They would run using Konfabulotor which was purchased by, I believe Google, and is available for free.To write this kind of widget, I'd need access to a PC to start. I don't even know how to write one, but I'm told they are easier to write than widgets for the Mac. So, it's possible I could do one...but probably not real soon... |

Actually, I think Konfabulator was purchased by Yahoo, not Google... |

Thanks for the widget Ray! I put it right under my NASA news widget.As someone whose done a little widget writing and has access to a PC I'd be happy to help if you want to try and port it over to Konfabulator. Tim |
