Fresh OS X Dashboard Widget

My latest OS X Dashboard Widget was made available today.

I have an iPhone application which is almost ready for submission. The dashboard widget is meant to be a free sample (and a subset of) of the iPhone application.

I'll have more to say about this once Apple releases the application to the iPhone store.

The Apple Dashcode tool greatly eases widget creation. It wasn't difficult to wrap the widget around my core libraries. I kept the dancing eye candy to a minimum because (after all) I prefer people to use the "for pay" application.

The Apple development tools are nice, it is easy to see why people get emotional about them.
