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 have been marketing affiliate products for over a decade and it was natural for me to want more widget tools to help me continue my efforts.

I was about to embark on gathering information for “money making Widgets“. It didn’t take long to discover wildman, Derek Anderson at WidgetsLab.com had already started such a list of sites.

What a concept! Widgets to help you make money.

Another to add to his list might be the Shop Widgets Program from Shopping.com

My job is done! Whew!

Also, I am seeking a Widget programmer who can help me develop a Widget idea related to the pay per click model. I say “programmer” because I believe this may be a little more involved than your average Widget. If you are interested in discussing, please use my contact form widget and leave a best time and number for me to call.
