Random Thoughts On Widgets.

I should probably mention that as well as reviewing pointless stuff, Im going to post random things which intrest (or disgust) me. Consider it a column on a news paper.

So anyway, as I'd just set up this blog, I thought Id make it look a little bit nicer by adding a couple of widgets (or gadgets if your used to blogger.) So, I got on google and I typed in "Blog Widgets" and got this site.

This is a Top 50 Widgets which you "have to" get for your blog.

Jeedjit: Allows you to find important traffic news directly from your blog!
(Excellent - Now My GPS and Blog are finally connected! How did I live without Traffic News on my blog rather than, well, EVERY NEWS SITE IN EXISTANCE!)

Price of Gas: Displays On the Minute Gas Prices!
(I really needn't explain, but can someone please explain what is with all the traffic/travelling ones...oh and can you also point out why the hell I'd want to know the price of gas every time I post.)

Daily Painters: Display paintings from famous painters on your blog.
(Seriously - Short of secretly having a art gallery on my blog, why the HELL would I absolutely need to have Paintings on it? Just a question? Anyone)

I know I'm being shockingly cynical, but really, these are the top 50 widgets. Oh, and just so you all know how sad different logos and figureheads have become, the most popular Widget on Widget Box, out of 175,000 widgets...Is Super Mario Flash.

Seeing as I cant disagree with the 800,000 people who have installed it - Im going to install it as well! So now you can play the most popular widget on Widget Box! HooraY!
