So I was playing with Konfabulator ( http://www.konfabulator.com/ ) and
thinking to myself... I wonder if something similar could be done in
python...
Well, not exactly similar, but kinda neat for a little hack- I wrote a
little widget like thing with pyobjc if anyone wants to run it. It uses
xmlrpc to talk to a perl script on my server that brings back a fortune.

The first link is the app without the pyobjc stuff in the Resources dir.
Also, It's a background app (and takes a while to start up), so if you
want to quit it, right click on it and choose "quit"
I was also wondering... how hard would it be to create little bundles
of these, and load them up dynamically? Something for me to explore in
the future anyway.
thanks for the cool python bridge,
