Hello all,

I would like to introduce my project gNetvibes, aka “Goodies for  
Netvibves”.  
It contain 3 main components :

1. netvibes : [netvibes.com](http://netvibes.com) api to access your data in ruby
2. gnetvibes : Gnome/GTK+ application (as an icon in the notification  
area)
3. uwa : Widget server (full compliant with Universal Widget  
API)

And some widgets for the uwa server (screenshots available on website) :

- uwa\_files : Remote file browser
- uwa\_hello : HelloWorld
- uwa\_sysload : System load graph
- uwa\_polaroid : RMagick gadget
- uwa\_syshd : System disk usage pie chart
- uwa\_download : Remote download widget (aria2 frontend)

All is available (doc, screenshots, gem) via rubyforge at :

- [http://gnetvibes.rubyforge.org/](http://gnetvibes.rubyforge.org/)

This project is young and really open to ideas, patches, remarks…
