Mac OS X Golf Tips Dashboard Widget
May 08
Sometimes I get carried away and work on stuff that might be considered completely useless and assumes no monetary value. Sometimes I just have to take on a project for the challenge and the benefit of learning. When I purchased the latest version of OS X (Tiger) a couple of weeks ago I fell into the Dashboard Widget void. I was blown away by the user experience and was drawn into the challenge of developing the widget. There are many facets of development that need to be understood when developing a widget. I’m not going to cover this details right now but will go into detail in a future post.
This entry is mainly an announcement of my first Dashboard Widget – Golf Tips 1.0. You can see a screen below and I’ll be working to improve the look and feel as well as functionality in the coming weeks. I’m really interested to know how many Mac users are golf fanatics. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the widget and please feel free to drop me a line if you have any feature requests, suggestions, or bugs. Click here for a direct link to the page where I’ll keep the widget updated.
