Ugh, Dashboard... the implentation is so clusmy right now.

And Statto... well yes, a nice program but one that is also lacking in a lot of configuration features.

Look people.. it is cool for multiple apps to exist that do the same thing but in their own way.

although this is cool, and i like it, this has already been done in a program called Sattoo, and there as a widget for Konfabulator. It'd be better to recreate it as a widget for Apple's upcoming Dashboard.

Ok, played around this tool for a little bit. My first request is that it would be nice if you could resize the mini-badge. Second would be some options to configure what is shown in the large view - how many of the most recent emails to show.. which widgets to show... you get the idea.

Otherwise, the app itself seems stable and lightweight. If you hide the dock and don't prefer menubar apps then this is actually quite useful... because I imagine for a lot of people they are using konfabulator to do the same simple tasks.

Anyway, this is a fine effort... no need to slam the guy.

Actually this could be useful to those that like to hide their Apple dock.

wow! the competition for "most pointless app of all time" is really hotting up these days. let's file this one under the "app that does something that's already built into the OS" category.

(MailBadge is a faceless application - it does not have a menu or appear in the dock.)
