Suggestions for docklets!
Thursday, May 29, 2008 by thenumber7 | Discussion: Docks
Hi all, I'm rather new to this whole docklets thing and I've found it to be most amazing. I'm looking for several specific docklets so if anyone could point me towards them or be so kind as to consider coding them i would be most grateful.
Here's the wishlist :
1) Taskbar Monitor - A docklet that would indicate to you what are the open windows on the tradtional taskbar. ObjectDock is great but when I'm on MSN, i usually can't tell if i've gotten a new msg or if someone else starts talking to me.
2) Dictionary/Google Search - I know this sounds silly (and lazy) but this would allow you to do an immediate search on Google or Dictionary.com straight off the docklet w/o out it first opening your web browser.
3) A countdown timer - I think i saw one but it doesnt count back far enough. I'm looking forward to something in a year's time so it would be nice to have a docklet that displays the number of days till then
4) A to-do list - There's one here already but perhaps something that further expands on it. It allows you to only enter 1 note. I'm looking for a docklet that would let me write several notes and display them all when i mouseover the docklet.
5) Multiple Docklets - Something similar to tabbed docklets i think. AveDesk has one so i was wondering if it was possible to port it over to ObjectDock.
Alright, that's it! I know some of it is rather ridiculous but I would appreciate any help I can get here.
Thanks!

I have the same problem. I am running Object Dock Plus and the Google search was working fine until I installed Google Desktop on my compuer an then the Google search stopped working. Are you running Google Desktop? Maybe that's the culprit. I'll start a new ticket and see if I get any advice.
