This page is
for all those out there who adore Wanda the GNOME fish.
(Actually I've called mine Karen, but that's besides the point)
I
hope that the GNOME foundation will ontinue
to include this lovable fish in
all their future distributions. I mean, the surrealist melting clocks, weather
forecaster
and game of life applets are all very fine and
have their own place, but Wanda is another
thing altogether :- a shining star among humble applets.
To
the unenlightened, Wanda the GNOME fish is a small applet
that sits in your desktop panel. It doesn't need watering or feeding,
and unlike other fishes, it responds to a click of a mouse button
by dispensing little gems of pure wit and perspicacity.
Oh well, yes -- quite often, Wanda is a fish that plagiarises,
but personally, I can't resist a fish that does that with quite
so much panache.
Get
your very own Wanda the GNOME fish here. Use GNOME!
This is what the old Wanda used to look like. But she's had a very nice make-over since!
Old Wanda before
