A Web site that offers desktop applets for the Macintosh desktop is gearing up to provide similar gadgets for Windows.
The site, called Konfabulator, launched in February and has attracted a wide following of Mac users drawn to its JavaScript applets, or "widgets," that tell the time, predict the weather, monitor battery or central processing unit usage and track the phases of the moon.
In less than a year, the software has garnered more than a million downloads, along with an undisclosed number of people paying $25 for use of the shareware product.
