this is very cool! Does anybody know if there's any trick to put this thing on a Windows XP desktop (I dont have Vista here at my work place)
You need to add it manually to the active desktop!
To do this go to your desktop and right click, select "properties" in the display properties window that pops up select the "desktop" tab then "customise desktop" near the bottom of this window, in the new window select the "web" tab, select "new" in the window that pops up then add the url in the "location" field in the new window, click ok then click ok when it asks to add this item to your active desktop, click on ok on the remaining windows and it should now be on your desktop, I had to resize the window for the widget on the desktop to display the widget properly using the mouse to drag the corners.
I used this url as it has less borders than the other ones I tried.

It's awesome having it on your desktop playing continually
Just hope my friend don't mind me putting it on his laptop he lent me
I did all this step-by-step, but nothing happened. When I go back to the Web tab, the check-box and name of the item is gone, and when I try to add it again it says it already exists.
