I'll go on record to say thanks Daniel, for pointing out the trick with getting the Dashboard Weather tracker to 'see' Perth correctly (i.e. politely ask it to search again :-)

Also, I've found that I'm using the icomic interface ( http:// www.ruxp.net/ ) for reading various online comic strips ... archives. It has a neat visual interface which shows which days of the month strips were published - makes it easy to go back and view past strips.

Seems like it's just Dilbert and Penny-Arcade at the moment, but I imagine it'll grow. I'm curious about what effect it might have on those sites advertising revenue (if the process takes off).

Other than that, Tiger seems (dare I say it) 'snappy' ... no serious bugs that I've picked up. Archive and Install lost the Wacom and ATI system prefs though - was easy to re-install.

Cool write up Shay!

I have to disagree with Dashboard though. There are no flights from Perth to Heathrow - Perth to Singapore, then Singapore to London maybe ;-) My only gripe is that planes in Australia don't transmit their GPRS data to the flightracker website. You should check out

<http://www.widgetdeveloper.com>

which is the release point for a lot of Australian content and Australian widget developers. There is one guy on there, islayer, who is developing an Australian tv guide widget that has Eyetv programming built in! Sweet!
