Hello all!

it has been some time since my last post as I have been creating and managing my own empire in the world of Russ.

Actually, I have been busy managing other blogs as after the success of this one, I was approached to write and edit for several other blogs which I have sealed my lips to mention. Suffice it to say I help develop and make successful some of the top blogs on the Internet, only to stuff the wallets of my superiors. OOOO how I hate the word "superiors"!

Don’t get me wrong, I loved….no…liked my bosses a bunch and appreciate the opportunity they gave me, but it’s just not the same as running your own blog(s) and having the freedom to say exactly what I want to say, when I want to say it. Therefore, after a long hiatus, I am back to give you more of what you want in the widget world.

It appears Microsoft still hasn’t learned that a widget is a widget and not a gadget. I guess some habits are hard to break, but I will not buck the system and the choice of the people and continue to call these little suckers widgets, though I may not capitalize the word as if it were a person any longer. That’s right! I have accepted the fact that my friend the Widget, (oops, I capitalized him/her again) is not a person but only much more reliable and fun to hang around.

Enough of the hoopla!

That’s all for now, as I only wanted you to know I am back with plans to post as often as necessary to keep you informed of how widgets can change your life. OK….maybe a stretch, but widgets certainly make your online web design life easier and I look forward to getting this puppy rolling again.

In the mean time, feel free to peruse the site and widget your little heart out.

Don’t forget to sign up for the latest RSS feeds so you’ll know whenever I add new content.

Off I go to find a dating widget so I don’t have to spend the holidays alone. ;)

I always love the guys at WidgetBox.

No…NOT LIKE YOU"RE THINKIN’…I want to have sex with them!!!

Just kiddin!

But if you are an eBay maniac, you may just find this useful enough to be tempted.

I have not used this service, but would love to have some feedback from anyone who has because I love the idea designed by the masters at WidgetBox.com

=======================

Here’s another eBay Widget from Widgipedia which operates very similar. They say "Activate your Listing Feeds in eBay… and submit it to us and we do the rest!".

I am curious to know what "the rest" is.

On further inspection, I see WidgetBox beat them to the punch by about a month.

Ooooo. The battle is on!!!

Which is best?

And…I did not forget you MAC users. Check out Easy Ebay.

As an added bonus and in the same arena as the ebay widget is this creative gadget made for real estate professionals. You can embed your listings into the gadget for placement on a variety of websites like Facebook, Wordpress, MySpace, Friendster, etc. Useful anyone?

Do you have an eBay affiliate account?

Wanna make some money with your new eBay widget?

I simply like the idea these guys have come up with.

Here’s the skinny! Their website states you can “embed your eBay PID into this oddball widget, and receive credit for 50% of the clicks from their site.” They are referring to a PID from CJ.com, an affiliate product provider. Bottom line…The genius widget makers are offering to display your ads ID 50% of the time, which means they get 50% display as well. Sounds better than most which offer no compensation at all.

eBay is not one of my favorite programs due to the low commissions, but the “idea” here is what excites me.

Another site with a similar concept is payperwidget.com . I’ll share more about this later.
