Active Desktop & XBox 360 Live

Remember Active Desktop? The world wasn't really ready for something like AD at the time. Since then we've embraced Apple's Dashboard and Yahoo!'s Widgets. I was reminded of one of the first HTML/Web Content Engines on a PC, Active Desktop, when I was attempting to create a dual screen wallpaper at work. I also found out recently about the XBox 360 Live Gamer Card that you can enable on your website. You can also add it to Active Desktop and get a good listing of all you friend's activities in once glance. Cut and paste this into an html file, edit with your friend's names and then use Active Desktop to display it.
