Valentine's gadgets



When I was a kid, Valentine's Day meant a lunch bag full of chalky candies and paper cutouts. While candy and paper hearts are still options, now you can celebrate digitally with Desktop gadgets. Here's a romantic rundown of some sugar-free recent additions.

This gadget brought back childhood memories of playing "she loves me, she loves me not" in the schoolyard. It's pretty accurate � she loves me not. :( But if I choose the "Always perfect ending" mode from the Options dialog, then she loves me, after all.
