Microsoft SideShow Description

Sideshow, that small program that you all saw yesterday is now available for preview. This version is 1.0.27, and doesn't require a DX9 upgrade. "We are pleased to bring you one of the most awaited components of Microsoft Windows Codename Longhorn. This is a full release of Microsoft Research Sideshow, the Task Shelf of Longhorn. This is early alpha software, so be aware of bugs etc... but during our extensive testing, we didn't encounter an enormous amount of bugs. We hope you will enjoy this release, and look forward to more from your favourite Release Group." Sideshow is built to use the skinning capabilities of XP and uses XML/HTML for the tasks that are "pinned" or stuck onto the shelf itself. When expanding a task an additional window pops out with extended information and additional tasks. The Sideshow application can be locked to the left or Right of the Desktop and intergrates MSN Messenger and MS Outlook into the bar itself. The task panes are called tickets and can be added or removed at leisure such tickets include weather maps, road traffic, webcams, live content and a task scheduler. Possibly a view of things to come? Come and get it! !!!P.S. 1) You will need THIS PATCH in order to work ! 2) MS opinion about this software can be found HERE Source: WinBeta.com
