    the clock itself of the Alarmclock gadget does not run. It stayed 12:28 for 15 minutes. Bad thing for an alarm clock that the clock doesn’t run ! Removed this gadget as this is worthless.

    None of these work and I cant find a single website that gives useful gadgets for free. I went on a website for a free gmail gadget and guess what?! It actually makes you pay after. If anybody knows a good website for any real cool/handy gadgets please post. xxx :)

    @ Kerenza Tam

    All gadget links were working a few days back. Microsoft has decided to discontinue Windows Gadgets site and for the same reason, links are not working now. Sorry.
