Permanently broken, but not the developer's fault - Version: 3.2, 7/12/2009 12:10PM PST

Larry Andrick

This widget no longer works--and likely never will again--but don't blame the developer. If you visit his website, you'll find out that the firm that was providing the gas price data for free abruptly changed to a paid license model with no notice to the developer. If there's no price data, there's no information for the widget. If this is something you'd be willing to pay for (yeah, right) then visit the developer and tell him/her/whomever that. I'm probably like 99% of you; it was good eye candy and interesting, but not valuable enough to me that I'd pay for a subscription. But I'll still miss it.

Stop Working - Version: 3.2, 3/27/2009 05:34AM PST

Well the widget worked for me before this 3.2 update. So i guess they want me to go to their useless web site from now on.

Still Doesn't Work - Version: 3.2, 3/26/2009 11:44AM PST

Installed 3.2 and it seemed to work for a day. Now all I get are the "No results found" error and 0009 for the price.
