I recently upgraded to Mac OS X Tiger and have been enjoying the functionality of Dashboard. I like to think of Dashboard as part information swiss army knife and part virtual library. I have the EggTimer widget which I set when baking my dinner because my oven has no self-timer. I also have various dictionary and wikipedia widgets to allow me to do quicklookups without firing up my browser. It was therefore a pleasant surprise to find this morning that a new WordPress widget had been released which would allow me to post directly from the dashboard. Though its still pretty limited in its functionality I like the concept especially for quick posts. Maybe this will be the much needed insipiration to get me blogging again.
