RFD Widgets
Posted on the main page before, but for those who missed it:
A couple of RFD readers have created cool RFD widgets for the Yahoo! Widget Engine (formerly Konfabulator). Widgets let you add cool mini-programs to your desktop, such as clocks, weather reports, news feeds and more.
Chris Chan created an RFD Widget that lets you monitor the deals posted on the RFD main page as well as in the forums. You can click here for more information.
siriuskao from the forums has created a similar widget that lists the new deals posted on RFD. You can download the widget from his webpage here.Last edited by Ryan; Feb 23rd, 2006 at 12:28 PM.

the direct link to the download (probably an older version) is not the same as the one in yahoo! widget gallery (the newer one, which allows you to look at different threads) Originally Posted by Ryan
