+Insp Gadget Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 I' can't program if my life depended on it, but how hard would it be to create a Geocaching gadget for Vista's Sidebar? I think it would be cool to have my stats displayed, maybe a search bar for caches, and I think it would be very cool to see a counter of the number of caches posted on GC.com that would increase everytime someone posted a new cache! What do you guys think?? Quote Link to comment
+Allanon Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 A Widget for the Mac Dashboard came out over two years ago, so it's probably possible. Quote Link to comment
+DeskJocky Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 It would be possible... Maybe it will happen when Vista becomes more widely used. Quote Link to comment
+Gecko1 Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 It would be possible... Maybe it will happen when Vista becomes more widely used. It would be cool, though. Perhaps it could take advantage of the 3D interface in premium. Quote Link to comment

+gerschel Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 What would be real cool... If you had a geocache map displayed on your sidebar that had a pop-up menu button that showed your pocket query names as a shortcut to view them in that map (no opening browser). While it can alert you below the map of new caches as they were posted. Then to top it off, if your stats were displayed, you can search for caches by name,#, location, and be able to log a find. In one sidebar gadget. That would be cool. Quote Link to comment
