I'm very interested in the whole Widget area on Blogs & Websites & think it is going to Explode this year! I like the way U have Visual Images flashing - that is very Eye Catching to most people! Cheers! Billy ;)) Cool Idea!

Also, we made a new add for the widget. I'll post it in the body of this blog post in a minute...see what you think. Desktop version is in the works. Also, we made a new add for the widget.

Perhaps some other name for the widget? Or have a "Add the Colts to your Web Page" and then the link shows you the widget? In other words, let folks know what they can do and get with the widget... and then actually tell them that it is a widget? I also wonder if they have a desktop version that works with Google Desktop or with Yahoo! Widgets? I think you and Paul are on the right track! Perhaps some other name for the widget?

I think you're really on the bleeding edge and while MySpace might have a spot in the public mind I doubt they know what to call the bits of code they copy from YouTube etc to embed those hilarious videos. Slideshow would probably help people understand or at least grasp the idea. Telling them there's a widget is about as helpful as telling them there's a Colts thing-a-ma-bob for their pages.
