Amnesty™ Widget Browser

I love desk­top wid­gets but I never liked Apple’s Dash­board because you can’t have the wid­gets vis­i­ble with­out hit­ting a key. I’ve always found that annoy­ing and I’ve stuck with Kon­fab­u­la­tor (now Yahoo! Wid­gets) on my Mac (I run them on my work PC, too). But now there’s the Amnesty™ Wid­get Browser that runs Dash­board wid­gets on the desk­top with­out Dash­board. Since I run dif­fer­ent wid­gets at home any­way, this could be the ticket for me.

Thanks to Matt Haughey for this one!

[Update] Amnesty works fine, but the there doesn’t seem to be a work­ing Yahoo! Mail dash­board wid­get or one that will sim­ply dis­play a kanji char­ac­ter like Jen­er­a­tor. Sur­pris­ingly, the num­ber of iTunes wid­gets is far smaller than Kon­fab­u­la­tor. I may switch back.
