Ok, the MAC and PC gap is definitely becoming smaller. Konfabulator, one of my favorite applications for the MAC has gone cross-platform today. What a day for software releases!

So, what is Konfabulator? Their slogan is “whatever you want it to be.” And that’s true. It’s not so much an application as it is a platform for new applications called widgets. There are HUNDREDS of widgets and they are very nice looking graphics that sit on your desktop and give you information … like weather, calendar, news, etc. There are also many widgets that control different applications, like iTunes.

Most widgets are completely compatible on MAC and PC, which is cool. Now I can see the familar widgets that I use on my MAC on my PC (and even further confuse me on whether I’m on my MAC or PC!).

You should really try out this program and look through the widgets gallery. Some of my favorite widgets are the MiniWeather, FTP mini Drop, iTunes Remote, MailMan, and Memorize. Let me know if you start using it and what your favorite widgets are.
