Mac has this aweasome dashboard, and you can customize it to your own needs.
In a previous tutorial I showed you how to install a widget. In this tutorial we are going to take a look on how to create a web clip using safari.
The web clip allows us to view anything from the web onto your dashboard!
Pick a website
In this tutorial i’m going to use Youtube as example. I want to be able to see the Featured Videos on my dashboard.
If you are free to pick any other website ofcourse.
Pick a part
Now its time to pick a part of your chosen website.
Converting it into a web clip
Now that you have chosen a part of a website you want on your dashboard, its time to cut it out!
To do this, got to File -> Open in Dashboard.
Making the selection
When you clicked Open in Dashboard, your Safari page will become a bit darker, and the selection will be white.
So move your mouse until you have something you like and then click to select it. (you can tweak it after you clicked)
Tweaking
If you are not happy with your selection, you can tweak it by click and dragging the circles around.
Adding the web clip
When your are satisfied with your selection, click add in the top right of your Safari browser.
Final Look
As you can see, the Featured Videos has updated while adding the web clip!
So next time you want to check out the featured videos, just click the dashboard button!
