Where can i find windows 7 gadgets?

J

since windows "retired" most of their gadgets they have taken all but a select few off their website. If anyone knows of a website that archived all of the windows 7 gadgets it would be greatly appreciated.

Answer
Gadgets are mini-programs that offer information at a glance and provide easy access to frequently used tools. Some of the gadgets that come with Windows 7 are Calendar, Clock, Weather, Feed Headlines, Slide Show, and Picture Puzzle.

Zack

its like an gadget that i don't have to long on to yahoo to check my mails.
when i log on my computer it sends me an i can see an gadget saying u have an email.
its similar to the iPhone one where it says mail on the bottom of the screen well unless u deleted it but its something similar to that but it would be for my window computer.

Answer
Windows Gadgets are insecure and vulnerable to attack. Microsoft could not be bothered to fix the issue and recommended users disable the feature (or suffere the potential catastrophes at their own risk), so you will not find many Gadgets outside of the first run, even from 3rd (good developers don't program for bad features).

Also, Yahoo (has always before anyway) reserves the use of clients and forwarding for it's premium mail users (your Gadget would basically be a mail client, only sending alerts.... it would still be trying to log on from outside yahoo servers which is not allowed, except for a fee)
