Today we talk about the iPhone and how it relates to Dashboard Widgets. We learn about several different launchers that can be used to launch widgets on the iphone as well as many galleries of widgets available for the iPhone. We touch on the specifications on making iPhone widgets as well as the Apple User Guidelines for doing so. The show covers some great dashboard widgets such as the Shredder Widget and also links to a widget.system comment on the show blog.
Gridgets
Organize your iPhone apps with style. While Jürgen and Oli still tried to find the beeswax, Werner and Chris were already following the Siren’s song of the iPhone. Humming along, they steered the ship towards the island of iPhone application managers. By the time the wax was found, it was already too late: If you like to follow us through the uncharted sea of Safari mobile app development, launch Gridgets.com on your iPhone. As iPhones are not easy to come by in Europe (it might take us another week or two to do our own testing) your feedback is even more appreciated.
“I was very impressed that they have taken this approach by bringing the zoom in motion to their user screen enhancing the user experience that one would expect from using an iPhone. I am not a fortunate iPhone owner but I suspect I would use this service as it uses the most common style which is why I would own an iPhone in the first place.”

“I liked this service once I signed up for a new account, what I didn’t like was that I had to sign up for an account. I can’t imagine trying to sign up for an account using my iPhone if I had one. I did like the interface once I tried it using iPhoney. Its very natural and looks similar as well to the iPhone system interface.”
