Check Out Our New Widget

onJun 26, 2007 @ 08:49 PDT

We recently developed another way for you to get news from DeSmogBlog. It’s a widget (or, if you’re on Windows Vista, a gadget).

What’s a widget? In a nutshell, it’s a little program that sits on your Apple OS X or Windows Vista desktop and does something neat. There are widgets and gadgets for nearly everything, and now there’s one for DeSmogBlog lovers.

Our widget displays current DeSmogBlog news. Plus, it’s got a counter that shows the planet’s estimated accumulated carbon footprint since January 1, 2007.

Visit our widget page for more information and to download our widget/gadget.
