The best yahoo widget out there....

Yahoo widgets formerly known as Konfabulator(Konfabulator was taken over by Yahoo and renamed to Yahoo widget Engine - Smart marketing, eh?) offer a galore of eye-candy for the graphic thirsty. I don't have monster dual-core or a mac(yet) and hence i'm quite conservative with these memory hoggers. But sometime back i did decide to give this baby a try. It is quite amazing what it does to your desktop. Absolutely fabulous. But it's not a thanks-yahoo-for-giving-it-free blog or even a thanks-Konfabulator one. But this blog is in appreciation of one of the best widgets out there. It's the "Tach Clock" by Peter Govaars. It's a truely amazing piece of work. I have always been a proponent of simplicity because sophistication tends to take away the simplicity of things, or so I've always believed. But if you take a look at this thingy you'll be bowled over by the combination of simplicity and eloquence of it. I desperately hope that some watch company had a look at it and are building a physical replica, as that would positively rock. Thanks Peter for this ultra smooth babe :-).

By the way here's the link: Tach Clock
