I just made my first Windows Vista sidebar gadget! Granted, it’s very simple: all it does is list some of my favorite links. But it’s quite convenient (more so than bookmarks), and it even matches my website color scheme!

Developing Vista Sidebar gadgets is really easy. I think it’s suppoed to be based on Windows SDK, but it’s really just HTML, CSS, and Javascript. Anyone can make one!

Microsoft made something easy and straightforward. Cheers!
