Gas Prices widget 1.3.1

CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

This small application tells you the latest lowest gas prices right from your desktop. Gas Prices is a widget with a small interface that displays the updated gas prices with the name and location of up to 15 stations. To use it, you have to go to the Gasbuddy Web site, enter a zip code, and click Search. You then paste the resulting URL into the widget's preferences. The program automatically retrieves and displays data. We find the utility handy, but we wish we could search prices within its main window. You'll need Yahoo's Widget Engine to use this tool. We recommend this app to price-conscious gas consumers at all levels of computer expertise.
