Thank you!!!

Tested!!! Works really fine, very clear and usefull, i can be working and see it alwais in a corner of the screen. Is different that the @tmjwid's android app, i like so much that app and is the most used on my phone heheh. But this is great too because is more comfortable sometimes when you are working with the PC.

The best part is that the user don't have to compile or install nothing, only launch the widget. Simply awesome!

Thanks Lerabot!!! Added to my start-up desktop apps. 8)

Thanks man!

I could actually look into porting it to android. I've seen people port Processing app, but I've never toyed with it.

It works a treat as an app. I can't make a widget out of it though, which would be awesome, save me opening the app and just have it on my phone front page. Also be cool if the profile images loaded up as they do on the site, with the last played etc. But these aren't necessities. :)

I did have a question though. Why does it show Monaco GP 2 and POD together on the games people are playing/last played? Are these two not distinguishable by DC Now?

Oh it does, sorry. That was a general question on DC Now rather than the app. I should have been clearer, my apologies.
