Have you ever used Yahoo! Widget? Today while I was seeking for something else on Yahoo.com I found this amazing tool from Yahoo!.

Let's take a look at what Yahoo said about it:

"The Yahoo! Widget Engine (formerly known as Konfabulator) is a JavaScript runtime engine for Windows and Mac OS X that lets you run little files called Widgets that can do pretty much whatever you want them to. Widgets can be alarm clocks, calculators, can tell you your WiFi signal strength, will fetch the latest stock quotes for your preferred symbols, and even give your current local weather..."

In fact you can install Widget Engine from widget.yahoo.com and add as many widgets as you like. Many ready-to-use widgets are provided by Yahoo itself and some others are built by third party companies and users.

One point that was so interesting to me is the speed of these widgets. You may not be aware that these tiny tools would decrease your system performance and speed. They sit on your desktop and don't disturb you!

I suggest you download Yahoo Widget and use its useful widgets to organize your works and access required daily information like weather, stock report, notepad, ...

Hi again! An unexpected server problem caused my blog go into coma at the first day of its life! CS wastes a huge amount of resource on shared hosting packages and it seems that it's not suitable for small scale web sites.

I tried to solve server problem and continue using CS as my portal engine but no result! While I was seeking for an alternative solution, Keyvan suggested me using dasBlog.NET instead of CS single blog. dasBlog is an open source blogging tool written in ASP.NET and is compatible with both version 1.x and 2.0 of .NET framework. dasBlog doesn't use any database to store information! It is pure XML base and so cost effective.

Because of huge amount of work which I'm challenging with in Digital Persia Corp. these days I don't have enough time to build my own theme so I used one of dasBlog default themes called "Portal".

You can find my RSS and Atom feeds links at the top of this page.

I'll be glad to receive your comments and ideas about SharpLife.NET ;)
