Tic Tac Gadget

This is totally cool gadget. Who can resist a multi (well 2) player game?

It's also totally useful. Instead of procrastinating web editors, business owners and developers alike can spend hours competing among themselves on the dashboard. On a 1 to 10 scale the business value of this gadget is negative.

The technical quality is totally over the top. The gadget features the most snazzy silverlight interface imaginable (you know, rich internet applications) and a super-cool duplex WCF service connection for instant feedback and the quickiest of games.

To make things even better it's all totally open. The code is completely exposed in the most embarassing of ways over at codeplex.

Obviously, the gadget is totally in time for the market. A gadget is never late, nor is it early, it arrives exactly when it was meant to.

You will find the download along with installation instructions over here.

Happy playing!

Installed the Gadget and it worked like a charm! One IE and one Chrome browser running different users with me in the middle - how could I loose?
