MacRumors Widget in Leopard

My MacRumors widget is broken in Leopard. It works, but when you click on the links, nothing happens. Anyone else have this problem or know of a fix?

This is THE widget of all widgets, IMO. MacRumors is my main Mac news source and I use the widget exclusively and barely ever go to the main page on here. So yeah, help!

 

Yeah, that's a good idea, but it's not the same!

I love the MacRumors widget because it lists the latest front page news stories and provides links to them. The only thing broken in the widget is that when you click on the links, nothing happens.

 

Just personal preference, I guess. I've been using it a long time and when I wake my computer from sleep or turn it on, the first thing I do is open Dashboard and check the MacRumors widget.

As I said, it still updates, but the links just won't work.

Who made this widget originally?

 

Different strokes for different folks.

 

I actually don't use RSS that much at all, so that's probably why I prefer using the widget. I used it a bit back when Tiger first came out, but not much since then. I get podcasts through iTunes, which uses RSS, I believe, but other than that, I don't use it.

 

So you can click on the link and it'll take you to the corresponding page?

I tried re-installing and it still doesn't work right for me. Maybe I'm using a different version or something?

 

I tried your idea of just using RSS. I put the MR feed into my bookmarks bar in Safari and I must say, I really like using it. This way, if you're in Safari, you can just glance up and see if anything new is in the feed. Thanks for the idea, man. I may even like this better than the MR widget.

 

Who knows, it may start working correctly once Apple releases 10.5.1, but after just having the feed in my bookmarks bar for a day, I can honestly say I don't need the widget anymore. Was a cool widget, though.
