Zannel Buddy

Zannel Buddy is a dashboard widget that allows text updates quickly from your Mac OS X dashboard. It has two themes, light and dark. It's main purpose is to serve as a demo application for the Zannel API but hopefully you can get some utility out of it. Anyways you can open it up look at the source, and go from there! Big props to Emma for the Graphic Design! Notably Zannel Buddy uses the jQuery javascript library, I can't say enough good things about it.

So I have an update... VIDEO!!!! Cube casting is here! This is kind of my first Objective C project, but I wanted to learn something new, and figure out how to use my isight in a Dashboard widget. So in the spirit of Free Software this is BETA software, use at your own risk. If you notice any problems, send me a Zannel private message, (my user name is bainfu). So there are two new versions for your OS X Dashboard. There is now ZannelBuddy: Lite, and ZannelBuddy: Camera. The Camera version does not support Mac OS 10.4 and below, in fact it might crash your dock. (It will immediately, reload it though.) Check back here in a couple of weeks for the source of the Quicktime Camera plugin! Eat your heart out Twitter! ;p
