22. Using the Dashboard
In This Chapter
• Selecting widgets for the Dashboard
• Downloading widgets from the Internet
• Organizing your widgets
• Creating your own Web Clip widgets
In this chapter, I explain how to select the widgets you want to use on the Dashboard, how to download more widgets from the Internet, and even how to create your own Web Clip widgets.
