Wikipedia Widget Review
Access Wikipedia from your Dashboard
Wikipedia has become an indispensable website in our everyday lives. Whether you need to check the definition of a word, learn about a historical event, or look up someone's biography, Wikipedia has the answers. And now, thanks to the Wikipedia Widget by Whatsinthehouse, you can access Wikipedia directly from your Dashboard on Mac.
This smart little widget allows you to search and display Wikipedia pages in any language. Simply type in your word in the search bar at the top right, press enter, and the widget will display the corresponding Wikipedia entry. The widget even shows pictures and links, which can be clicked to open up your browser for more information.
One of the great features of this widget is the ability to open any random page in Wikipedia by clicking on the '?' button at the top. This is perfect for those who are looking to discover something new or just want to explore different topics. Additionally, the widget caches pages, allowing you to quickly go back to previously viewed entries.
Another useful feature of the Wikipedia Widget is the ability to edit entries in Wikipedia straight from the widget. This is a convenient option for those who frequently contribute to the online encyclopedia.
While the Wikipedia Widget is a handy tool, it can feel a little cluttered due to its smaller size compared to a browser page. Additionally, it may use up some memory as it retrieves information from the internet. However, if you're curious or frequently need to look up information, this widget will be extremely useful, eliminating the need to open your browser to access the online encyclopedia.
