Live Maps traffic gadget for Windows Vista Sidebar available for download

After blogging about this nifty Windows Vista sidebar gadget a little while back, its now available for download on Windows Live Gallery. Even though the purpose of the gadget is pretty clear, Nathan Weinberg has a detailed post describing the in-and-outs. Dennis Cheung thinks that traffic is worse on Valentine's Day than other days, but with this Live Maps traffic gadget installed, you'll be ahead of the game.

Although this is an official gadget, it was created by Donavon West. Great work as usual and probably the first Windows Live gadget of many. If you have any feature suggestions for this gadget please leave them in the comments below.

For some reason I can not change to opacity for this gadget.  Other gadgets I don't have this problem.  Anyone else see this?

Right-click on the blue title area and you will get the sidebar menu where you can set opacity, etc.
