I took a trip to the Mac store today to pick up something for RD2. It’s like stepping into another world. You know what I might just miss most about my Mac here at RD2 when I head back to school in a few weeks? My Dashboard.
Less like bookmarks and more like toys, widgets continue to fascinate me. Whether aesthetic or functional, I can’t help but get a kick out of them. I did have to restrain myself from installing a crossword or sudoku puzzle, for fear that my actual work might suffer, but I love my hula girl (she dances on mouse-over).
I’m sure this is all very old hat for long-time Mac users, but I will remind you that I am not (exactly) among such users, so indulge me.

Man, it’s hot today.

Yahoo! Widgets has very similar offerings, but they work on a PC! No need for one of those Macs. Fight the assimilation!

Also, I’m fairly certain Mac Dashboard users don’t have the Dwight K. Shrute bobblehead widget.
