Webnet just hit the Store !

Ok this is a big one !

Being so far the only developer working on myBoard, it takes a lot of time to create magnets and I needed to find a way to give you guys more magnets very quickly. Thanks to the AMAZING work of Chris Cavanagh and the “Prince of code” on the Awesomium (Google Chrome) library and .net wrapper, I managed to give birth to a magnet called Webnet.

Ok this is a big one !

Being so far the only developer working on myBoard, it takes a lot of time to create magnets and I needed to find a way to give you guys more magnets very quickly. Thanks to the AMAZING work of Chris Cavanagh and the “Prince of code” on the Awesomium (Google Chrome) library and .net wrapper, I managed to give birth to a magnet called Webnet.

Webnet will take a website url, or some html snipet code, and it will display the content. The great thing about this is that there are tons of web widgets providers out there widgetbox, Google Gadgets, Netvibes to name only three of them. And you can now use most of these web widgets/gadgets directly into myBoard !

Let’s take this BBC widget from Netvibes for instance.

Copy the HTML code into the clipboard and paste it into Webnet.

Hit the “Save”, and you now have a cool BBC magnet :)

You could do the same for flash games available on sites like http://www.miniclip.com , or http://www.freegames4all.net/

Unfortunately, not all web widgets will work with this first version, I’ll do my best to figure this out and improve this magnet in future releases. In the meantime, grab it in myBoard’s Magnet Store, and start enjoying all these web widgets directly in myBoard :)

Note : Make sure you have the latest version of myBoard before using Webnet.
