This Widget will display news headlines in a scrolling ticker, similar to those seen on buildings in Times Square, NYC.

The ticker is movable, sizable, and capable of displaying multiple news-feeds. Clicking on a headline in a feed takes you directly to the news story selected. Also included is an option to pause the ticker and pop up a brief description when the cursor hovers over a headline.

The ticker supports slow, medium, and fast scroll speeds as well as manual 'scrubbing' by dra…gging left or right within the ticker. User selectable fonts, colors and transparency allow for flexible customization of the ticker's appearance. More
