Topic: TV Guide
How about a widget for TV guide listings? Would come in real handy to just glance over at the nightstand and see what was coming up.

I'll vote for that one! It would help justify the purchase to the wife.

The TV grid data requires licensing from GemStar/TV Guide, which was recently purchased by Macrovision.

Interesting - I wonder if a Flash movie whose source is released under the GPL would qualify. We'll look into it.

What about XMLTV? I've recently bought a Tubestick Hybrid and while their programming guides likely work fine in Germany, in the US they're pretty pointless. They suggest XMLTV but I tend to run and hide every time I read the word "tarball" in a configuration guide. Others around here, however, might be more braver than myself...

While not providing listings for every channel, the new TV tracker widget is great for tracking when new episodes of your favorite shows are on. http://www.chumby.com/guide/widget/TV+tracker Not a TV Guide exactly, but thought it might still be useful.
