    Google Desktop gadget

    Hello, everybody!

    A week ago I've found myself thinking about more convenient way I can use Zabbix. I'm sort of admins manager and responsible for systems operations. Therefore, in most cases, all I need is a very brief but up-to-date screen, which would tell me what's going on - it is triggers page

    But I'm not fond of switching to one of many opened tabs in Firefox to see what's up. Therefore I've decided to create a Google Desktop gadget.

    The screen shot with the result of my work is attached to this message (the gadget itself seen in the middle part of the picture)

    The only option is the URL of your php frontend.
    If you'll click on individual trigger, the page with latest data of host for which trigger was fired-up will be opened in your favorite browser.

    If you're still interested in this peace of software - proceed to the next message And remember - your comments are always welcome!
