I was bored this evening so I decided to try writing myself a Vista gadget. Using Winamp Control Center (by Owen Rudge) I created a gadget that controls Winamp.

Anyway if you want to try it out you can download it here.
The only prerequisite is that you need Winamp installed in the default Winamp directory for now.

Agreed…mine is somewhat dated now, given that it was written over two years ago. I am not actively developing it.
