Thanks to Anthony Deloso at The Skinny, PaulStamatiou.com readers now have a Yahoo! Widget Engine (formerly Konfabulator) compatible widget. Similar to the widget I created for OS X users, Anthony’s creation extracts the latest headlines from my blog and displays them in a nice looking interface. Yahoo! has widget engines for both Mac and Windows platforms, so there’s no need to worry about compatibility issues. Although, I might add that for some reason the widget only worked on one out of two computers I tested it on.

Looks good Paul. I’ll have to get one of these widgets pushed for 5ThirtyOne. You’ve got lots of little lemmings to help you with these types of projects. I’m jealous.
Gah, you scared me… I was _just_ on your site.
Found this from your flickr account.
Sadly it’s only Yahoo! widgetized, eh?
And I’m not sure why Stuffit opened it up instead of OSX’s own unZip mechanism. hmm.
Stuffit crashed for the first time ever for me. And i’m talking about 10 years of Stuffit use.
I wish i had the ram to run konfab while on my temporary machine. I’ll check back once i get my machine (this week?).
Cool widget.
I love flickr advertising. =)
My only love will be my news reader :)
Paul you little nerd…..you have the Yahoo! connection
Dennis is right, you Yahoo nerds have your own little families to play within.
awsome, I was kinda mad when you just had a dashboard widget. Now I can use in on my PC.
Darn! Windows XP/2000.
Eh. I’ll settle for RSS.
Eh, this would be cool if you could clone it and configure each clone to display a different feed, and even add a different header image for each.
