  1. I only wish we could use gadgets without having to enable the sidebar... I really hate the sidebar.

  2. You can do that. Just drag the gadgets to your desktop and minimize the sidebar. You can disable the sidebar by selecting None from the tray icon.

  3. Hm, those seem kind of disappointing. I was hoping for some great gadgets that would make me want to start using Google gadgets.

    Any readers here have some better gadgets that they can't live without?
