Konfabulator, Revamped!
Palo Alto, California - July 23, 2003 - Arlo Rose and Perry Clarke are proud to announce that version 1.5 of Konfabulator is ready to go!
After carefully listening to our users and Widget developers, Konfabulator, which has quickly asserted itself as one of Mac OS X's best all around utilities, has gained support for the most asked for features!
Widgets can now support drag and drop, direct text input, keyboard events, keep track of mouse events, can be part of your desktop (living behind your icons) or floating above everything else ignoring mouse clicks. But the list doesn't end there. There are over 200 new features, and countless updates to make using Konfabulator and making Widgets easier and more fun!
But guess what, our default Widgets were updated as well, and five new ones were added! The Weather now gives you a forecast, Picture Frame lets you drag and drop images and folders into it, and Stock Ticker supports unlimited symbols, and the world's top indices. The new Widgets show off 1.5's newest features, like the text input field on Where Is It?, the floating Window property in iChat Bezel, and more drag and drop fun with Waste Basket.
Tired of the default Widgets? Visit the Widget Gallery and check out over 350 user contributed Widgets that range from amazingly addictive games, to incredibly useful utilities.

Arlo Rose introduced themeable interfaces to the world with his work at Apple on the Appearance Manager and on the popular customization utility Kaleidoscope. Perry Clarke switched from another well-known OS where he worked on consumer software such as the Mplayer online gaming client.
