My Favorite NEW widgets!
By widgetshow

I just wanted to sit down and review a few widgets that I absolutely love. These are new widgets that I have been using that I feel have earned merit due to functionality and design. Not only that but they are fun widgets to use in the dashboard!

Plasma Tube Widget
The first one of course is the Plasma Tube widget. This is a great widget that adds more style to your dashboard. Its a lava lamp style tube, but instead of a light its a motion activated stream of exploding plasma. You can select the tube color as well as the glass style and plasma colors, its an entertaining widget that has earned a spot in my dashboard. The Plasma Tube widget is created by Inner Mind Media and you can find it here.

Shredder Widget
I had mentioned this widget on the show basically its a small widget that permanently erases and shreds important files on your computer. No excess menu functions simply click once for a green light or low security shred. Click again for the yellow light or medium security shred and yet again for the red light or high security shred. The Shredder widget is a simple widget wich functionality can not be stated more plainly. The design is unique with a small shredder you will actually see your documents being shred to pieces. The animation is very cool and its a fun way to delete files from your system. The widget was designed by Interdimension Media and you can download it here.

Travel To Do List Widget
I love to travel and so its no wonder I love this widget. Not only am I adventurous I am also forgetful, so this widget makes traveling less painfull. Its a widget that allows you to add any item to a checklist that you want, there are many preset items that you would want to take on a trip but also you can write your own. Its not limited to pages, because you can have as many pages as you need just scroll through on the bottom. Its easy to use, and very useful, and the design is top notch. You can change the picture on the clipboard to reflect where you will travel too, the only thing its lacking is the ability to print but I am sure it will come along in time. Again great widget by Sea Travel, and its available here.

I hope you enjoyed my list of great NEW widgets, keep trying out new widgets and exploring and re-inventing your dashboard area. Please feel free to mention the ones that you love and why in the comments area!
