Setting a webpage as wallpaper

Hi,
Is there any way/3rd party software to set a website as the wallpaper.
Say google.com shows up in your desktop and you can type in there...
I know we can do this in windows but there are no options that I can see in a mac

Macbook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.2)

Neato!!! For 3rd party utilities go to Versiontracker and Macupdate.


For regular type of wallpaper (non-interactive), take a snap shot of the webpage that you want as your wallpaper. You can do this by either - Apple key/Shift key/3 key.
Apple key/Shift key/4 key - will give you cross hairs to crop exactly what you want as a wallpaper.
Or use the Grab app which is located inside the utilities folder.


Place the file inside the iPhoto folder or the Desktop Pictures folder which is located in Machintosh HD/Library/*Desktop Pictures,* restart your computer.
System Preferences/Desktop & Screensaver/Desktop - Select your picture from the side panel.
