Widget Badgvertisement
| Wednesday, June 13th, 2007 | --Sean |
I'll admit, I was ridiculously optimistic when I saw the note about "Badges for Widgets?" on this Yodel Anecdotal post, because I've always thought it would be the awesomest thing if Yahoo! Widgets could easily be converted into fully functional web-based badges with which to clutter up my blogs/profiles/webpages. Sadly, this dream was not yet meant to be. However, the Y! Widget badge generator is still really well-designed and easy to use, and provides a very attractive way to advertise across the web all of those widgets that you've created or that you just like a lot (using a nice-looking static image that gives you the widget name, author, and rating, and links to the download page). So, you know, baby steps towards my Yahoo! Widget-filled online utopia.

Thanks for this interesting post, I have been experimenting with ways of adding 3rd party widgets to my Facebook profile. Check out my blog for a cool piece of Facebook bling: http://yourmaninamsterdam.blogspot.com
