Check out the sidebar options (top-most down-pointing arrow) to add/remove panels. Click the "Show ActiveX Plugin" and there you go, you can IE, Media Player (ok, bad examples) or whatever ActiveX you want to your sidebar. Nice. I know, ActiveX sucks on lots of points, nevertheless this is a very clever addition to the sidebar. Lots of apps are instantly "compatible" with it.
You can see the end result here
It is really a good app.
Installed it, spent 2 minutes configuring it and downloading 2 new "applets" and the whole thing is already really useful and doesn't show any serious bug.
Oh yeah, I saw this post, in my "Web Clips" (read "Web Feeds" you microsoft people;) window...
The GDS API also includes samples for the sidebar and the whole thing doesn't seem too complicated.
Bye bye Konfabulator...
Good stuff. Once again.
