Vista Gadget
Hi, Thought it would be a useful feature to have a gadget for vista display bar to display the spec's (Fan speed,temp,HDD...) of NV+ So kinda like the yahoo widget. Anyone like the idea?
I would really like a Vista Gadget for my ReadyNAS! Any idea if there is one in the works?
I found a site that describes how to create a Vista Gadget. I am not all that familiar with VBScript, but the concept looks simple enough. From the look of it, all you need is a manifest file, some html with the script, and the graphics. I also found a site for Authoring Sidebar Gadgets in C#. My guess is that someone could manually review what's provided for the Yahoo Widget and use that to make a Vista Gadget, but I don't think my skills are up to that task just yet. Maybe someone will take what I found and run with it. :)
