Although personally put great value on a well organized and clean desktop video the other day with more intensive use of Windows 7 (on Vista I did not put into account and still have an old XP has) I fell into "sin" and I put some gadgets. But as the default set that comes with the operating system it has not satisfied the claims and not to fulfill my needs I searched and found another set of gadgets that you wish to recommend and Chameleon Glass is a package that provides 14 gadgets.

On one side are very nice visually speaking, based on the Aero transparency effect, supporting any background (wallpaper) on your desktop, on the other hand very practical, with multiple configuration options. Glass Chameleon kit installation 9 MB is very simple: download, unzip and enforcement. As I mentioned it offers 14 gadgets, taking the order by author, some do not need explanation: calendar, clock, control (closure or restarting offers from your desktop computer), CPU, e-mail, net bars (monitor width of bandwidth consumed), net stats (monitoring traffic on the net), notes color (note the background color), notes white (notes on white background), one drive (providing statistics on the free space on your computer), radio, recycle bin, stats (provides statistics on various activities as ex. while online or offline, local IP, battery status), weather.

Capture above may mislead> she wants to show the diversity of the facility described, in the meantime the number of active gadgets that my desktop shortened, but are open to other recommendations in the comments.



Last month Google Analytics announced the availability of an API for this service. This means of course that with a little programming, you can make all kinds of desktop applications and to realize web applications, statistical data collected by Google Analytics. Since the first announcement (see link indicated) was recommended as a demonstration, a small application on her behalf Polaris. It is a program that "goes" on Adobe AIR to be installed if you have not already. The good part is that it works both under Windows, Mac or Linux, since AIR is multi-platform. Thus, in about 30 seconds you have installed and running Polaris.



Obviously, this small program does not replace searching online data Google Analytics account. But it allows access to important data. The first steps involve defining an account, and then you have a menu of eight destinations. I put the above four catches for illustration. If you often forget to such data would be able to agree a small program than opening a web page, identify and navigate to the desired statistics. Free version works with Google Analytics, but you can have any number of sites where defined. The program promises that will be updated frequently. Hopefully that will be so: it would be useful and other statistics and can can switching to a surface (the application) higher.
