NANY 2012 Entry Information

Application NameDesktop URL Embed
Short DescriptionEmbed the contents of a webpage in the desktop as a gadget
Supported OSesWindows Vista/7
Setup Fileversion 1.0.0
DescriptionActive desktop was supposed to be a big feature on Windows, but it has faded into the annals of history.  Or has it?  It's still there, just not as prevalent.  So when I wanted to embed a webcam view in my Evil Genius desktop setup, I decided to learn about Windows Gadgets...
FeaturesEmbed a URL into your desktop.  Set a refresh if desired and the size of the gadget.
Screenshots
InstallationDouble-click the .gadget file.  Allow installation.
Using the applicationAfter installation, the gadget should appear.  Drag the window as desired by the gripper, or click the wrench to adjust the settings.
UninstallingRight click on the desktop and select gadgets.  In the window that appears, right click the Desktop URL Embed gadget, and click uninstall.
NotesRequires IE unfortunately.  The desktop gadget content portion is only IE.
