I just noticed something about the OSX Leopard clock widget.

The second hand does wiggle about for a split second upon advancement just like a bedside alarm clock would to in real life, now how creepy is that for a software clock? ;-)

However i grant that it adds to the look and feel and does seem like the right thing to do to make people feel more at home on their desktops, sometimes its the little things that count.

I like it.
