InsideMicrosoft Gadget Roundup

Date April 23, 2007

Nathan Weinberg has just posted the eigth of his series of Gadget roundups on the InsideMicrosoft blog. As is typical, there’s details on a random selection of reasonably useful Sidebar goodies.

However, with three of them not working, one with errors, one that crashes your sidebar, and at least one that’s totally pointless (i.e. just pointing to a web page) - perhaps Nathan should consider removing the word ‘good’ from the title? I’d personally rather see a weekly roundup of the absolute best that there is out there, rather than a mediocre snapshot of everything. Sorry Nathan!

Definitely worth checking out for one or two though. SysInfo for example is an excellent multi-purpose clock!
