Today Plugins
 

Hey, folks. I searched for this, and i had to wade through 30 ft of unrelated crap before finding anything remotely useful, so i apologize if i'm making an unnecessary thread, but i just got second today on my Diamond (Get it....now) and am looking for a compiled list of the best today screen plugins and hopefully links to get them. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Right now i just have resco contacts and gpstoday.

Re: Today Plugins
 

Greetings. Today plugins hey? Well here's a few, but i guess it's all personal preference on what's good or not. The skyfire web browser has a today plugin search bar http://www.skyfire.com/ My favorite rss reader is spb insight, which is a paid app, but very nice http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/pock...tware/insight/ And then there's vtap, "watch any web video from your phone". :) it comes with a nice little video search today plugin http://www.vtap.com/index.html
Theres some, but there's plenty more floating around here somewhere.

RSS hub also has a today plugin, but it sucks compared the spb one dschoenike mentioned.

Also, you could try here:

Weather Panel is a must if you're a weather junkie. FYI, GPSToday also has a stand alone app which I prefer over the plugin.

Forgive me for linking to my personal site, but it's the easiest for me to find the references: here are some of my favorite plug-ins.

(I used to have more but I don't use them so much any longer)

Google search bar:

PDA Status - shows some nice status icons:

WeatherBug (it's not even a plugin, it takes just an icon):

Bati Bettery plugin:

A great configurable today clock:

And this one used to be my favorite: DavState - you can see shortcuts you added and also running programs - it may not look so, but it's cool, believe me.

Enjoy!

Great thread!
Is there something that _doesn't_ require MS Outlook on your PC to put the tasks on your phone's today screen?

Re: Today Plugins
 

I run 2nd today with weather panel & the metrix plug-in.

I also prefer the standalone GPS Today app.

Re: Today Plugins
 

What exactly is better about the standalone? does it still do automatic updates? Thanks for the replies, folks! Keep 'em coming! i'm eventually going to try them all!

Re: Today Plugins
 

Yes, it does automatic updates. I like it better because all the info is on one screen, current location, weather, etc.
