Stikkit on your desktop

We're always thinking about ways to keep Stikkit close at hand. Assuming you do too ;-), I thought I'd point to a couple of little apps we've come across to do just that.

Steven Frank's lovely little WebKit-based WebDesktop for Mac OS X overlays Stikkit (or any other site for that matter) on your desktop, leaving it dimmed until you start interacting with it. An auto-refresh setting means fresh content shows up without need of a manual reload.

And Stikkiteer bmassey finds Bubbles, a system-tray enhancement for Windows, a perfect way to keep a logged-in instance of Stikkit at hand.

Have a Stikkit hack to share? Pop in to the "Widgets, Hacks, and more" forum and let us know.
