Widget Watch: Tigergotchi

Wow! The Tigergotchi people are really quick on the bug fixes! And they have a bug fixed version out! That is a 4 hour turn around on a bug, in the middle of the night folks! Amazingly above and beyond the call of duty. My hat is off to both of you mek&tosj. And if you have not downloaded this "tigergotchi" yet, go now; and get the best "tigergotchi" ever.

Thanks Dennis for pointing out this bug, somehow the standard apple code for the little white i that fades in and out conflicts with other code, leading to exorbitant cpu usage. We fixed the bug and now CPU usage is virtually nil... Cheers, mek&tosj

I really like this kind of thing as well for some reason, however after downloading it I found that it ate up around 50% of my processor and on my powerbook that would give me about an hour of battery life. ASCIIPet however doesn't do this and can be downloaded from . I hope that they can get the processor usage under control because it is a very cool application.
