Google +1 Vista -1
It seems Google has implemented on of my favorite features of Vista in Google Desktop: Sidebar!
On the left over here you can see part of what my current Sidebar looks like - almost exactly like the Vista one! Google even has a Calendar widget implemented that looks and mostly functions exactly as the one I was working on in Vista… thats kind of depressing, but I am happy I wont have to make it for Google Desktop now ;-)
I think I will try to port my CollegeHumor.com Vista Gadget to Google Desktop though - maybe release it to the wild.
Oh, and for those curious heres a screenshot of what my computer looks like with the Google sidebar:
This will be a pretty busy quarter, currently scheduled for about 20 hours of work at the CCL, 20 hours being the max a student employee is allowed to work.
My Intelligent Secure Systems class is also turning out to be a lot more work then I had originally anticipated: first assignment being a 5-8 page essay/review of two fairly large security articles (one was 245 pages..), and the next assignment (due Monday) is something about patents and is probably of similar length.
Oh and one more picture that my Mom emailed me the other day:
“Check out the “expression” on this woodpecker this morning!”
Holy post with pictures batman! Anyway, it is time I go put my wet laundry in the dryer.
