forest widget for mac peoples

Post by neil » Mon Jul 12, 2010 8:18 pm

Contemplating the nature and purpose of life, it occurred to me that what the world really needs is a forest dashboard widget so that Mac users can get the latest forest news pumped straight to their desktop.

If you use a Mac and you want forest news, let me know either here or in a pm and I'll send you the widget. Installation is a cinch!

If you don't know what this widget nonsense is all about, lookee here:

I was trying to set it up on the G3s in the action room but wouldn't work. They're running 10.4.11, so I dunno if it would work for you Dirk. How many mega cycles is your G4 chip? If it's 867MHz or above, you could update to Leopard, which is a big improvement on Tiger. Will make your laptop useable if the hardware's ok.

Also discovered that the auto installation only happens if you download it with Safari. Firefox makes things more complicated. Dunno why.
