Meet the Press

Knowing what happens on the world stage of politics is important in understanding international relationships and the policies that affect us directly. The Meet the Press widget is an app that lets you see the latest titles and read important news pieces.
The gadget requires Yahoo! Widget Engine to function. It comes in a nice interface, a dark blue box with white text for the news teasers.
Clicking on any of the news stories takes you to the webpage, which opens in the default browser.
The widget preferences options enable you to set the automatic reloading time. The app comes with a few preset values, such as 30, 60 or 120 minutes. Alternatively, you can refresh the page from the app’s interface for instant updates.
Also, the number of displayed items can be adjusted. The minimum value is ten, while the highest is thirty.
Other adjustments regard the window properties. The app can be set to always appear on top of other programs, to ignore mouse events and become locked on the screen, thus preventing you to drag it by accident. The transparency of the frame can also be adjusted.
For over sixty years, Meet the Press has been an important weekly TV show that concentrates on world politics. Despite the changes the show has suffered over the decades, it remains one of the longest-running series in American history.
Now, the show and the news provided for the app regard important topics, such as finances, budget plans and governing proposals.
All in all, Meet the Press is an interesting gadget that can help keep you up-to-date with what’s happening in the world around you. The widget is easy to use and customize.
