i-Club widget with RSS feed----Mac users

I was bored and thought I would design and build a widget that has an RSS feed from Autoblog.

It would be cool if i-Club had an RSS feed. Does it? I can add if it does.
Click the link bellow if you want to download it.

Enjoy!

Widgets are "tools" that can be accessed/seen from your desktop. For example, you can have a "weather widget" to see what the forecast or temperature is. Or you can have a traffic widget that updates the traffic on your preferred highways. They're basically tools on your desktop so you don't have to open a browser to look for it. They mostly require an internet connection to work.

Currently, Macs have the widget software included.

Windows users can use Yahoo! Widgets.

From what I know about the subject, an application named Konfabulator created the idea of simple little apps that were easily accessible from your desktop to provide specific information at a glance. The idea is that each widget is designed to provide specific information, not a gaggle of random information.

For Mac users, pressing the F12 key will bring your widgets to the forground. Otherwise they are hidden.

Yea, that was my goal, but I found out i-Club does not have RSS feeds. Can someone create it for i-Club?
