Here you can read and get access to all my projects, that I´m currently working on, or is finished.

Now finally the first release of the gadget is available for everyone to download! This gadget is free to use, but any modifications of it without my permission is strictly prohibited. 

Using Windows XP? You can install Vista Sidebar on XP, using the package provided on this page.

If you´re using Windows 7 or Vista, then you can just download the gadget.

The first project is:
4Cast - A Windows Sidebar Gadget
This really nice gadget presents the weather, from the famous norwegian meteorological institute(www.yr.no). They offering a a lot of options for all that want to build something using their weather-service.

The weather gadget fetches the latest forecast, from any chosen location in the world that yr.no supports. It shows at minimum the current weather and by opening a flyout four further days are represented. The temperature is displayed in Celsius by default, but it´s possible to use Fahrenheit. As in common with most Sidebar Gadgets, this one is also offering localization possibilitys. The languages currently supported is Swedish, Norwegian and English. I would appreciate any help I could get translating the locale file to more languages.

I´m proud to present my first javascript project, which gave me the opportunity to look at how AJAX is working. Since it´s my first real completed javascript project, there may be some errors and things that probably could have been made better.
