Konfabulator 1.8

CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

A bevy of desktop bells and whistles awaits in Konfabulator, as long as your desires are modest and your system can spare the memory. The widgets on offer are slick but simple: battery indicators, clocks, stock tickers, and newsreaders, to name just a few. The ambitious and savvy can craft custom widgets with XML and JavaScript (and the ambitious and aspiring can download an extensive manual on the developer site). Note that these gewgaws will take up to 2MB of system memory when running. For finding those small, specific enhancements you simply must have, Konfabulator is your tool.

Publisher's description

From Yahoo :

Konfabulator is a utility that allows you to use and develop cross-platform mini-applications using JavaScript and XML to do whatever you want, and look however you want. Using the time-tested Mozilla JavaScript engine, Konfabulator is a completely open and easy to learn environment, so creating your own Widgets is an extremely simple task. You can change the look, feel, and layout, even functionality of a Widget so that it matches your lifestyle, your desktop, or the pants or skirt you have on that day.
