Telluride | A festival widget?

Yes, and only time will tell if it delivers what every Telluride-goer really wants to know: what and where are the sneaks.

In the olden paper-and-ink days, you lined up at the kiosk to grab a schedule, asked someone who knew someone, or greased a Telluride staffer with a drink (never worked). 

Now Telluride and their presenting sponsor, Dell, have created a desktop widget that has festival, lodging, and outdoor activity info.  The Sean Penn and Daniel Day-Lewis videos are good. 

It also has this tantalizing feature - "The Calendar/Schedule section will be real-time, including film trailers and customizable schedules when the lineup is announced (and up-to-the-minute queue information once the Festival begins)."

You can stick it on Facebook, MySpace, Blogger, etc.  Grab it here

Here's mine:
