I just came back from BriForum in Chicago and besides the awesome event that was, one more thing came to attention, half of the Notebooks being carried around by attendees and speakers were Macs.

Carried away by the energy of the event I decided build something for our Citrix Community. A dashboard app that makes easier for our visitors to read the latest posts and collaborate with their comments.

 Meet the Citrix Blogs Widget

 With version 1.0 you get:

  • The latest 30 Citrix Blog posts
  • Adjust view from Full to Summary
  • Collaborate with your comments
  • Open posts on Safari or Firefox
  • Spotlight Search (Instant search)
  • Push updates (no refresh required)
  • Watch blogged videos
  • Check for updates
  • Send feedback

Requirements:

  • Mac OS X 10.4 or greater

This is Great! I really like it when someone is inspired by events, and especially Macs. This is a great tool and I will be getting a lot of use out of it. Thanks for all the hard work.

Very cool indeed. Finally someone paying attention to the Mac users in this community.

Here's a good question - Can we have a PNAgent-like Mac Client?

A PNAgent for the Mac would be really interesting.

Downloaded the widget - nice work.

Thanks guys.

You know what I would love to see a PNAgent (or as we call it now-a-days) Citrix Applications version for the Mac.

I can join you guys and advocate for one! Don't know if It's going to happen, but if it does, it will be a huge win for Mac users!
