OK, so I posted these in the lounge as well under the Dashboard-topic, but seing as this is the technically correct forum to put it, here goes:


Address Book
Calculator
iTunes
Stickies
Tile Game
World Clock

And to quelch security concerns: even when run locally in Safari, all the gadgets that interfere with the system info, most importantly Adress Book is non-functional. You can't even change the iTunes-track So there's clearly more to gadgets than just HTML+JavaScript.

But hey, have fun with the calculator and the tile game. Ripple-effect not included

For more info, check out my blog entry on it.

It seems that the gadgets require Safari to function, world clocks clock hands even require Safari 2.0 it seems.
