OT: Widgets?

by cornball on May 4, 2009 12:43 PM PDT Comment 3 comments

Due to USMLE Step 1 dominating my forseeable future, I will be spending many days and nights in the library and I've come to realize that Giants' baseball is perhaps not the best for my concentration. I'm sure my question has been covered, but does anyone know of good scoreboard widgets? I'm looking for a desktop widget for a PC that can be modified to only show the Giants' score. A limited schedule would be fine, too. I really don't care about news. And if this has been covered elsewhere on this site, just point me there 'cause I can't find the post. Thanks in advance for the help.

This one is OK.

It can be customized to show only the Giants score as the primary. You can open/close the full scoreboard with one click. It’s small, and uses very little resources.

There are not that many good “widgets” for Windows XP. The is an MLB score widget for Vista, but it is really “buggy”. There are of course many good free widgets for OSX.

Forgot to include a screen shot. It is very small. About the only negative I can say is that it can only be positioned in four spots: Bottom center, Left Edge Center, Top Center, Right Edge Center.
