Longhorn SideBar

Longhorn SideBar is a cool way to make your desktop look better than just slapping on a new wallpaper or screensaver. If you're someone who loves adding gadgets that actually do something useful, then this software might just be what you're looking for.

What is Longhorn SideBar?

If you've used Windows Sidebar, Yahoo! Desktop Widgets, or Google Gadgets, you already know how these little utilities can enhance your experience. Well, Longhorn SideBar brings those same vibes with some neat features!

User-Friendly Features

This software operates on the same basic idea as those other tools, so you won’t have any trouble getting the hang of it. While you can’t add new items to the sidebar itself, the built-in gadgets are pretty handy right from the get-go.

Built-In Gadgets

The first thing you'll notice is the ever-present date and clock add-on. You’ve got different display styles to choose from that match various skins available in Longhorn SideBar. Just right-click inside the app to check them out!

Sticky Notes and Slideshow

If you like jotting down quick notes, you’re in luck! The sidebar comes with a dedicated memo gadget so you can keep all your thoughts organized. Plus, if you enjoy viewing beautiful images, there’s a slideshow feature packed into it too—perfect for adding some flair to your workspace.

Quick Google Searches

Need to search for something online? No problem! There's a function that lets you start Google searches without having to open your browser manually. Super convenient!

IT News and Software Links

If you’re into IT news or need links for software downloads, Longhorn SideBar has sections for that too. Just keep in mind that only a couple of those links still work based on our tests.
