Blog: dashboard cheat sheets for your favorite mac apps. Dashkards Mac app poll results By Tom on October 29, 2012 Thanks to everyone who took the time to take the poll regarding turning the dashkards widget into a real Mac app!
I’ve taken the poll down and have been sorting through the responses. Around 150 Dashkards users took the poll and the average price they were willing to pay (given possible choices of $0, $0.99, $1.99, $2.99, $3.99 or more) is $1.90. Given that most people (me included) don’t bother to take polls, I think that’s quite positive. The main reason for the poll was to see if there was enough interest in a dashkards Mac app to justify spending time and money on it. So, taking into account the current feature set of the widget and the feature requests submitted in the poll, I’m going to start working on the dashkards Mac app. If you have any ideas or feature requests for the app, feel free to email me and I’ll see how they fit in the overall concept.

Many OS X Lion users enjoyed this simple, but much needed refresh to Dashboard. However, there are some upgraders to the new OS from Apple that absolutely hate the new Dashboard and would like it to go back to the way it looked and acted in Mac OS X Snow Leopard (by flying in above all of your open windows).б═ Luckily, Apple included a very simple way to change the Dashboard back to the way it was in Snow Leopard, even if you’re running OS X Lion.
