Living in Canda I can't use it but I think this is an wesome idea. Finally an widget, gadget or object that does something new. Bravo.

Wow. I can only imagine the amount of time and hard work that went into this.

Thanks everyone for the nice comments!
skyzyk: There is support for international Fedex & UPS already, and I'm happy to add new carriers when possible. Let me know which ones you use (you can also PM me tracking numbers if you have some, it always helps).
SViz: I started it almost 2 years ago (and there is some shared code for animations & updates that predates it). If you also count the plugins for system & taskbar integration, it is quite a bit of work.
And I pushed most of the code to a shared framework, so the widget itself is only ~8000 lines of script.

Bravo I love it when someone shows that DesktopX can do more than just change the skins of an application.

This seems rather clever...now can you get it to show how many times they dropped my package?
heheheheh
