Desktop Fan - specifically for the 2009 World Hockey Championship!
The project was done by a group of independent developers, more than 15 people took part in the creation - this is not counting those who simply supported, posted information on their blogs, told friends about the project.
The application is installed on the desktop, includes: the schedule of games of the World Hockey Championship 2009, hours with Swiss time, automatically filled tournament tables, information about teams, victories and medals.
That is - you can follow the championship without opening a browser.
Technique: very simple HTML + AJAX technology - well-known to everyone, which in IE allows you to send a request to any site and get an answer.
Faced with the complexity of inserting translucent design elements - here's an article on how to make transparency work in IE6 www.tigir.com/alpha_png.htm
The project is not commercial, the application is free. You can download the program from the site www.kikobox.ru.
