Widgets-Blog.com

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.

Happy Labor day everyone!

After having a seriously long weekend (if you know what I mean), I am back and ready to Widget…

If you are looking for a rotating image Widget, this one is quite interesting. It allows you to enter a search term and/or web site you would like to display images from. So if you have an image rich site where you want to display the photos on your website or blog, this may be an easy answer for you.

Check this out…I entered the keyword “fish”, and ask the Widget to search only Wikipedia.com

Here’s the resulting Widget:

I guess this might be great if you have a list of sites which contain pics you want to display. If you like you can grab the Widget from WidgetBox.com by clicking the “Get Widget” button at the bottom of the Widget.

Here’s another photo image rotator which operates in a similar way, but has much more control of how, and what you display. You do need to have a Flickr account in order to make this puppy work to your taste.

Upside is you can search by date the picture was taken, select the size of the Widget, as well as change colors to fit the theme of your site.

and…And…AND….you can add text. So there!…

Pretty cool huh?
