Software » Whois Dashboard Widget

Update. More information is available about the Whois Widget 1.2 release.

Yep. I’ve finished it. It’s a Mac OS X dashboard widget for those of you who want to use the WHOIS protocol simply and quickly straight from the dashboard.

I built it in Dashcode and it’s compact and usable. I do plan on improving it as time permits so if there’s something you’d like implementing (like more servers adding) then let me know.

What follows is the blurb that Apple wants me to stick up if I’m to get it submitted

Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger is required.

If you’re using Safari, click the download link. When the widget download is complete, show Dashboard, click the Plus sign to display the Widget Bar and click the widget’s icon in the Widget Bar to open it. If you’re using a browser other than Safari, click the download link. When the widget download is complete, unarchive it and place it in /Library/Widgets/ in your home folder. Show Dashboard, click the Plus sign to display the Widget Bar and click the widget’s icon in the Widget Bar to open it.
