Windows Gadgets (Geek Wisdom Clock)

Image
Do you remember the old days of ' Windows Desktop Gadgets ?' Gadgets were introduced back in 2000's by project "sidebar". A research group, who had developed a way to add things lick a clock, or an RSS reader on your desktop. Well the other day a fellow team mate of mine showed me a transparent clock he was working on in VB.NET. And I was like "Whoa! - Cool can I get a copy?" Well I tweaked it a bit, and wrote a tutorial on how it works on my GitHub Page. You can read the tutorial here:  https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/5249592/Making-a-Transparent-Desktop-Clock  and the related GitHub is @  https://github.com/geekwisdom/gwClock . Feel free to make your own gadgets using it. Or if you prefer to just download the binary release -   https://github.com/geekwisdom/gwClock/releases Thanks to Chris Wilby for the inspiration and the source! Enjoy !

Happy Thanksgiving - What are you grateful for?
