I was thinking that it would be good to have a Win 7 gadget on my desktop that used my clientraw file, accessed via my LAN, to show the current weather.
I’ve done a search of the forums and found several threads for Yahoo or Google gadgets/widgets but all of them need some additional software, and they all seem to work by accessing your remote website.
Is there one that I can simply install in Win 7, where I can set my server as the access point for the clientraw file…?
thanks,
Daryll.
Well there is the Client program on the download page from WD http://www.weather-display.com/downloadfiles/clientviewer.zip that works great. I use it on all my puters and its a local thing also.
Just what I was looking for… a little big maybe, but I’ll search the forums to see if I can customise it…
Many thanks…!!
Daryll.
I’ve also thought it’d be good to have a little desktop gadget. Perhaps just showing Temp/Heat index, Barometer Trend and Wind Gust/Chill.
Perhaps we could get our heads together to get a “best of” wish list and maybe, if there are enough people wanting, someone will start a new project.
I would start by saying it needs to be small, with all the information you want at a glance. A quick “What’s it doing now?” sort of thing.
