Gadgets & Apps: Web Gadgets | Atari 2600 | Radio Shack MC-10

If this page were an actual workshop, it would smell like a lumber yard.

Here is a unique section of Pandapolis. I have been involved in computer programming of some kind for the past seven years—web page design, podcasts, tweaking Microsoft Excel code to customize charts, and creating simple programs for classic computers via emulation.

Gadgets is where some of my hare-brained ideas are freely available for download and use. While not everyone is an Atari or Radio Shack fan, I think the web gadgets on this page will be of great practical use for people who are making their own websites and don't have the time or patience to learn Dreamweaver, Joomla or iTunes.

And here's a dirty little secret: you don't need any of the above to make great web pages. If you know HTML and have Notepad, you can create your own sites for nothing. After that, you can happily email me "thanks for nothing". :)

Some of these gadgets of these gadgets are text files (.txt), so it's best to save them on your computer and open them in a text editor like Notepad or SimpleText and use the Word Wrap feature. Otherwise, it'll look like one really, really long line if you open it in this web browser.
