    Hi,

    We like reading your blog and so wanted to let you know about our new site: Widgetop.com now in public beta and so would like to get your feedback about it.

    Widgetop is a free on-line web desktop which runs Apple dashboard widgets on any computer and is not tied to Apple OSX, and so can run widgets on Windows and Linux as well.

    On the Widgetop web desktop user can quickly find and customize widgets using the built in widget catalog and online widget gallery. Widgets on the web desktop can be flipped over to change their settings and users can also change the graphical appearance of their web desktop.

    Widgetop server provides a complete and transparent hosted dashboard environment so most Apple dashboard widgets based on CSS, HTML and JavaScript (most widgets) run out of the box without requiring any API changes. Widgets tied to native Apple OSX functionality eg systems profilers tools like CPU and Disk gages etc are not supported.

    Currently Widgetop supports: Firefox, Camino, Sea Monkey, Netscape 8 and all browsers that support Gecko layout engine. Browser support for Safari and IE7 are in development and some new features too.

    I hope you find this interesting and if you have any feedback we would be happy to read your thoughts about it.

    Our Best Regards,
    Widgetop Developers
