Dashboard Starter
I love it when developers come up with tweaks to augment software that should be in the original software in the first place. Dashboard Starter does nothing more and nothing less that load up all of your Dashboard widgets under OS X 10.4 immediately upon login rather than forcing you to wait for the 5-10 seconds it takes to after a reboot. It’s a small, silly thing, but it eliminates much grumbling and gnashing of teeth.

What would be even better is if the widgets started up as soon as a network connection was detected — invisibly. The Dashboard Starter makes the Dashboard appear when you log in, which makes ME gnash my teeth because I prefer a fast login to a whole bunch of programs running at login (hear that, Microsoft?).
There must be a way to tweak this behavior somewhere. Maybe an AppleScript or something.
