Widget Watch: Delivery Status
I am on my Mac for about 80% of my waking day, and I drift to sleep thinking of cool things I could do with my Mac. That means that I purchase many things online. It is convenient and usually cheaper, but you do have to wait for the package to show up. Enter Delivery Status, a very cool widget from Mike Piontek.This widget goes beyond tracking UPS and FedEx shipments, though it'll do that as well. Not only does this Widget track packages via UPS, FedEx, DHL, and the US Post Office, it also tracks your order status from Amazon and the Apple Store.
Not too shabby for a free widget.

Thanks for pointing that out, Scott. I'm using it right now to track my iPod shipment. :)

This is the most unbelievable widget I have ever seen. All that info in one place really saves allot of time especially in the holiday season. It is doing what widget were meant to do. Absolutely perfect.

Take that, Monkey Business Labs! The lack of USPS on your package tracker has finally been addressed by a superior widget!

I know Mike. Not personally, but through online forums. He's a pretty cool guy, I'm glad he's getting some recognition.
