I love it! If only it showed more than 5 friends and if it updated faster.

I tried it out....great concept, but buggy. Sometimes it shows the gamertags and sometimes it's blank. I just uninstalled it. Hopefully, that will be fixed, soon. Great idea, though!!!

Tried it, and it's buggy has hell and can only show 5 gamercards.

It does have the best features out of all the sidebar gadgets I can find though. but the bugs and 5 card limit turns me off.

I uninstalled it after 2 days use.

Any chance of it coming to a good OS, like Leopard!

I need to look into that - I grabbed a Live gadget from a non-Microsoft developer when setting up Vista. I really, really miss XP. :(

Your right about Vista. Most people that complain they have a 7 year old computer with 512MB RAM. I don't know what they are doing. I've also seen some killer machines with Vista and it's sweet! Can't say anything about a Mac since I just bought one, but I'm a huge Microsoft fan and will be running XP/Vista on it.

Can't use it, it has a huge memory leak after idling 10 mins or so.

I don't know why they can't make a gadget that gets your Friend's List. Well, aside from it replacing Windows Live, which should be integrated into Windows (at least Vista) instead of being tied to specific games, they should be an easy gadget to make. Look into XboxFriends.com if you want an Xbox friends list on your desktop. It's not a fully finished product and I don't know if it ever will be, but it's far better than any of these gadgets so far!

whats wrong with vista, the only people that cant use vista have a computer thats old, or dont know how to use a computer...

or own a apple...

Vista is far better than XP...

Nice Gadget

I like this, I can now choose which friends I want to know that are online. Can't get download to work right now though, I think his blog has been beat up with hits.

I think it would be cool, if there was a version for the Dashboard in Mac OS X. Vista is terrible and is driving people to switch anyway.
