Yahoo speeds Widgets with version 4
Yahoo's Widgets 4 is faster, consumes less memory and adds a dock to keep the small applications organized.
Widgets 4, now available for download for Windows or Mac OS X, also has a dock to keep the applications organized. The dock can be automatically hidden or can be attached to any side or corner of a user's monitor.
Also new is a Flickr widget that lets users view, upload and tag their images at the Yahoo photo-sharing site. And Yahoo updated the 21 widgets installed with the earlier version of the software.
The new version also includes better programming tools for those who want to write their own widgets, a gallery widget to look for new widgets without using a Web browser and automatic updates when widgets are upgraded.
Yahoo Widgets shouldn't be confused with Apple's Widgets or Microsoft's Gadgets or the fidgets I get when trying to keep this software sorted out.
