KDE 4 will support Dashboard widgets

By Dave Caolo

Now this is pretty cool. KDE developer Zack Rusin notes on this blog that the upcoming KDE 4 will be able to run Apple's Dashboard widgets. He writes:

"I finally got most the implementation of the HTML Canvas element for KHTML finished...I'm planning to add full OSX Dashboard compatibility layer for Plasma (hence why I've spent most of the day yesterday on implementing the Canvas element)."

A pretty cool idea, though I wonder about widgets that depend on Applescripts. This will be fun to check out.
