Information is the main management tool

    Everyone faced a situation when you need to track some data in real time, whether it is weather, the euro exchange rate or other information. In this case, would the simple Windows Sidebar that came with Windows Vista / 7 for this purpose help? The answer is simple - although the Windows Sidebar has many gadgets, sometimes there aren’t those that could solve the problem, for example, monitoring the status of a computer or a remote Windows-based server. In this review, we will talk about how to make life easier for ourselves and others with the help of a free and at the same time powerful program - Samurize ( http://www.samurize.com ) The program itself reminds everyone of beloved Conky - a system monitor distributed among Linux users.


    Samurize application allows you to use the form designer to create the presentation of information in the way that suits you, while consuming a minimum of resources. Creating a panel boils down to the fact that in the configuration wizard you only need to place the necessary elements, after specifying its type.



    To display more detailed information, the program has support for plug-ins and VBS scripts, which in turn greatly increase the functionality of the program. From the current playing composition in Winamp to displaying the temperature of the GPU, through plugins. On the program’s website, in the download section, there are a huge number of all sorts of goodies, from skins and icons to ready-made program configurations. If for some reason it turns out that the plugin you need is not on the site, the program has its own SDK, available in Delphi / C ++.

    What follows from all this? If you want to own information and be aware of everything that is happening on your computer, or even in the world, then Samurize can certainly help you in this difficult task.
