Movies Plugin for Google Desktop
Dec 03, 2005
With the latest release, Google Desktop 2.0 introduced script plugins. That means that it's now easy as ever to create sidebar panels. So I went ahead and created a Movies plugin -- you specify a zip code, and it will display customized movie listings for theaters near your home. You can also filter by genre, MPAA ratings, or user ratings, and sort by popularity or ratings.
Worth a try! It's available free: Google Desktop Movies Plugin.
It has also featured in Google's Plugin Library, and on the Google Desktop Blog as Plugin of the Week.
Not bad for half a day's work, eh? That's putting the Thanksgiving break to fruitful use. :-)
