Doris Blog

We had a few reports of problems from users our Doris Dashboard widget.  In some cases, duplicates of new items were being created.  So we’ve releases updates for both our widget types:

• download the latest Dashboard widget
• download the latest Opera widget

For more info about how to access your Doris account through various widgets and other clients see our Integration page.

And while I’m at it, welcome to all the new users who signed up thanks to our mention in yesterday’s TUAW post – welcome guys and we hope you enjoy using Doris.

Thanks to the guys over at .NET for featuring the Doris Opera Widget in the August 2009 issue.

We almost won, but second place is not too bad so we’re really happy with the Betavine results!

Two months ago we entered the Betavine competition which asked mobile developers to build widgets for devices based on the S60 platform using the Opera widget runtime.

You can check out the Doris mobile widget on our Integration page.

The guys at Vodafone just approved our Doris widget, download it now!  As long as you have the Vodafone Widget Manager you will be able to run Doris on your phone.

Opera widgets

Well, if you have a recent Nokia or any mobile that supports Opera version 9.5 (beta) you can now run Doris on your phone!  So you can’t call us Apple elitists any more

We’ve chosen to support the emerging widget standard which means a single codebase can be used for

• OS X Dashboard widgets
• Opera widgets
• Google gadgets
• AIR apps
• mobile safari apps (browser in your iPhone)

We’ll be working at making all these variants available in the upcoming weeks.

For more details of phone support and to download the widget, see our integration page.

Or check out our submission to the Betavine (Opera widget) contest.

Or check out page on the Opera portal.

Or even the Vodafone site

os x widget

We’ve been working on making Doris available on multiple devices and platforms, and the first fruits are an OS X widget.

You can download it here.

Be warned, the widget is blazingly fast!  Dmitri and I are now using it as our main access to Doris.

Many people prefer to access their online services through means other than a browser, so we hope this does the trick for you.  For those unfortunate ones who are not using a Mac, we’ll be making a PC equivalent of the widget in the near future.

The widget has a few caveats which we will improve in upcoming releases, but we don’t think they will bother anyone:

1. you can’t switch items between groups
2. you don’t have a link to signup to Doris, you must be already registered

Please download it and let us know what you think in the comments!
