Dashboard Widgets For Windows

For a windows user like me, just can watch with envy the new eye candy features in Mac OS X and wondering how I can have the same feature on my beloved windows.


Before Apple introduce dashboard in their latest Mac OS X, most of mac users already can have widget on their desktop using Konfabulator by Pixoria Inc. "Konfabulator is a JavaScript runtime engine for Windows and Mac OS X that lets you run little files called Widgets that can do pretty much whatever you want them to. Widgets can be alarm clocks, calculators, can tell you your WiFi signal strength, will fetch the latest stock quotes for your preferred symbols, and even give your current local weather."

And on November 2004, Pixoria has released Konfabulator 1.8 for both Mac and Windows platform and its instantly bringing its renowned OS X-based functions (and widgets!) to the ubiquitous Windows platform. There is a small community in windows user that love to change their default Windows look to Mac OS X and with the availability of Konfabulator to run widgets, some of the talented developers has started porting Tiger Dashboard to run on windows using Konfabulator engine and the results is tremendous.


And until today, quite a number of Dashboard Widgets has being ported to run on windows using Konfabulator and other widget engine like Avedesk, Kapsules, and Stardock DesktopX.


1. Dashboard Weather
Here is my first Konfabulator Widget. After seeing a preview of Tiger (particularly Dashboard), reading about a alternative for Windows (Konfabulator) and seeing the great work of Saladin and Ghostwalker, I decided to make my own contribution. So here it is, the konfab clone of the weather widget.


2. World Clock World Clock Dashboard for Konfabulator. Based on the Konfabulator WorldClock Pro by Ricky.

Create A Flash Presentation For Free With Open Office

What is Open Office?

It is a free, open source, cross platform office suite that has a lot of the same features as popular commercial suites.
Being that it's cross platform means it can be compiled for just about anything, Windows, Linux / Unix, Mac, etc..



Using Open Office Presentation

Basically, if you've ever used Microsoft PowerPoint, you've pretty much used Presentation. It's a slide show (or presentation) creator that lets you create any style slide show you want.
You can have text, graphics, charts, etc... or any combination
It does not take much to figure out Presentation. You can add text or picture boxes, add designs, add tables and pretty much anything you can think of.
After you have created the presentation, here's where you convert it to Flash:


Step1:You simply go in to the 'file' menu and select 'Export'.

Step 2:A 'save as' dialog box will come up where you can choose the file name, location and the format you want.

Step 3:From the pull down box you will see the 'Macromedia Flash (SWF)' option, that's the one you want.

Step 4:Select the format, pick your location, name the file and press the Save button.

That's it.. you now have a Macromedia Flash version of your presentation that you can include on your website.

Why would you want this?

Macromedia Flash is pretty much a standard for multimedia on the web, as a result there is a plug-in for almost every browser and most people already have this plug-in.This gives you the chance to put Flash content on your site without having to play for the Macromedia Suite.

Change Your Word Docs In Record Time

Anyone who has ever used Microsoft Word knows that it is a powerful word processing package. It's loaded with dozens of features designed to make creating documents a breeze. And anyone who has used Word's Find and Replace feature knows that this is one handy feature. It makes changing words or phrases throughout your documents fast and painless.And that's great when you're working on just one document. But suppose you need to find and then replace a word or phrase throughout all of your Microsoft documents or throughout all documents located within a particular directory?

You know, like when there's been a change to your business address or telephone number? Or when there's been a change of ownership, or upper management, or to the board of directors?
You could use the Find and Replace feature to change your documents one by one. Using this feature will make changes faster than not using it. But if you're changing lots of documents and you need to make the changes rapidly, you need something more.
And that's exactly the reason why WordPipe was invented. WordPipe is a stand-alone add-in tool for Microsoft Word. Use this incredible add-in to instantly modify ALL text, links or images located on your web site or on your file server. How instantly can changes be made? Users report that 500 changes can be made in about twenty minutes!


Today's business world is in a constant state of change. And to keep up with these changes, and to keep your business on the cutting edge of technology, your business will experience change. Document links change when you consolidate your servers and even when you are simply replacing or renaming documents. Web addresses change, names of key players within your company change, product versions and other information changes ? there's just no end to the amount and type of information that changes when you run a business.
And those with whom you do business need to know about these changes the moment they occur. Time is money so any way you can cut down on the amount of time a task takes, the less money you waste.


IT departments love WordPipe.

But even if your business is not yet large enough to hire a full-time IT staff, you won't lose with WordPipe. WordPipe is accountable, too! Its change log lets you know exactly where it made changes.
It doesn't matter whether you need to find and replace information that is contained inside headers, footers, textboxes, links, hyperlinks, hyperlink addresses, field codes or any other built-in or customized document property, in any folder or sub-folder. Even files marked as read-only can be modified using the special tool.
Need to change your company logo wherever it appears in your documents? No problem. WordPipe will work on a number of file types including .doc, .rtf, .html, .htm, .dot, .txt, .asc, .ans, .wri, .mcw, .wpd, .wps or any custom document type.
WordPipe supports all versions of Microsoft Word except Word 97 and earlier. This add-in runs on Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, 2000, XP and 2003.
