Macintosh Software Search: New column sorting and sidebar filtering!

EDITOR NOTES
See 'Related Links' below on this page for Dashflix Mini.
DESCRIPTION
Dashflix... If you're like me, you are both obsessive and a Netflix customer. This combination leads to constantly double-checking what's in your queue and what has been shipped to you. Now you can engage in this psychotic behavior from the comfort of your own desktop!

The Dashflix widget gives you a list of your "At Home" movies, complete with estimated delivery dates. Flip it over, and you'll see all the movies in your queue. Click on any movie to bring up Netflix's summary of the film in question.

Originally written by Joshua Emmons, the widgets were donated to the public domain in April, 2008. The latest release of the code has been imported here and updated to work with Netflix's latest changes. Developers, if you're interested in helping maintain the code, please join the discussion group. This project exists so fun, useful code doesn't simply evaporate over time.

WHAT'S NEW
Version 1.5:
  • Incorporates changes to Netflix’s site from May 9, 2008
  • Moved to Google Code (interested developers welcome)
REQUIREMENTS
Mac OS X 10.4 or later.

EVAL  An update to the NetFlix site in the past week must have broken version 1.4. This doesn't work as of 5/10/2008 (perhaps earlier).  (Version 1.4)

TOXIKK  Broken? It says that there is nothing in my at home queue and when I flip it over I do not see any entries. Hmm.

10.4 v 1.2  (Version 1.2)

MKAISERMAN  Although not yet loaded here, on the developer's web site (click "More Information" above) he has a new version (1.2) that fixes the estimated arrival date issue, as well as a mini-version for those (like me) that wanted a smaller sized Dashflix.

Nice widget!  (Version 1.1)

JERNOMER  I recently noticed that Netflix.com changed the look of their site a little and, as a result, Dashflix is no longer able to pull in the 'Estimated Arrival' information.  (Version 1.0)
