Widgets flying solo
Amnesty™ Singles 1.3.3
Some Dashboard widgets are so sophisticated and useful, they’re practically screaming to be made into standalone applications.  Go ahead — let them experience the single life — convert them into applications with drag-and-drop simplicity.


Reviews
“You may be familiar with Dashboard’s hidden Developer mode…but this technique leaves the widget floating above all the other applications.  A better alternative—for $10—is Mesa Dynamics’ Amnesty Singles.”
– Macworld (February 2007) Mac Gems


“Amnesty Singles takes Dashboard’s devmode hack…one step further: it lets you convert any widget into a true standalone application.  Usage couldn’t be much simpler than it is.”
