3D IP Lookup Widget 0.3
3D IP Lookup Widget visualizes the geographical location of the hosts from a traceroute output in Google Earth.
Traceroute, reinvented
3D IP Lookup web service is an experimental tool to generate Google Earth plugins from traceroute outputs. Have you ever wondered where the heck in the world was the IP Address 158.42.4.23 that you see in your blog statistics? Once there was an app called Visualroute that tried to plot on a 2D world map each hop on the route from your computer to that IP address. But, man... 2D sucks! I want to see the route in that gorgeous Google Earth 3D map! So I built this service that creates Google Earth Plugins using geographical information from My IP Address lookup service.
3D IP Lookup widget brings the 3D IP Lookup web service to your Dashboard in a compact, easy to use interface.

• Renamed to prevent confusion with products offered by MaxMind.
System requirements:
Minimum system requirements are Mac OS X 10.4 “Tiger” or later, Google Earth, an Internet connection (broadband recommended) and a lot of patience (the traceroute command can take a very long time to run sometimes).

Gwidget 0.5.1
Gwidget (jee' wid get), is not like the billion other google search widgets out there.
Gwidget displays the search results right in the widget and even displays a smaller version of any website you choose right inside of the widget.
It also allows if you like better, to open the links you click in your web browser instead. So if you like the Wikipedia widget by Sean Billig, then try Gwidget.
The the most frequent request for Gwidget is for it to be resizable. Well now, after about twelve hours of non-stop working, you can finally resize Gwidget. I also added a white color scheme option because someone wanted it to look more like googles' widgets. You may also notice other small changes. Also, If you want to show your support for Gwidget you can donate however much you feel it's worth.
I have also released version 0.5.1 which is just a bug fix for a pretty big problem that occurs for people who have not used any version of Gwidget before version 0.5.
New in version 0.5.1:
• Fixed bug that caused problems for users who have never used pre 0.5 versions of gwidget
New in version 0.5:
• Gwidget is now resizable!!
• Added a new white color scheme option
• Minimizing and expanding is now animated
New in version 0.2:
• Choose between 4 new colors
• Other small fixes and improvements
System requirements:
Mac OS X 10.4 or later.

Metronomic 0.31
Metronomic is a widget for Dashboard OS X. It's a simple metronome that helps you count beats. For those who are unfamiliar of what a metronome is, it is a device that comes in both analog and digital forms, where it counts beats and emits a sound to help musicians keep their rhythm constant.
I haven't really been an avid Mac proponent. I've only been a Mac user since I got my MacBook Pro back in June, but I have to say it's a satisfying feeling being able to easily create software for Dashboard which is a very powerful interface, but amplified by what you can use it for.
System requirements:
Mac OS X 10.4 or later.
