Title: Vista Sidebar Gadget
Post by: UncleUB on November 22, 2008, 08:25:40 AM

Hi all,I have been using the Daily Snooze sidebar gadget for ages now and suddenly its stopped working.Its is an excellent quick link to the BBC's news page.
I have tried the website www.dailysnooze.com but its not there.
I have also tried   http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/# and that says there is not such site.I am wondering if its been removed or there is problems with the site.

I've just installed it to try it but it isn't working for me either, so I think it may well have gone belly up.  It could be just having temporary problems though.

I've been using this one http://gallery.live.com/liveItemDetail.aspx?li=99b3a89b-3bf6-40c2-8299-5f79d5915788&bt=1&pl=1 (http://gallery.live.com/liveItemDetail.aspx?li=99b3a89b-3bf6-40c2-8299-5f79d5915788&bt=1&pl=1) for quite some time, you could give it a go while waiting to see if the daily snooze gets fixed
