How to Build Your Own Google Gadget
We love us some Google here at Quo Vadimus. Not one day goes by that I don't check Gmail, keep up with my ever-growing list of feeds with Reader and the many other wonderful tools over there. Lately, I've been playing around with iGoogle as my home page and so far am very impressed with the enormous amount of gadgets they offer.
Like most web developers, the first thing I did was check out their API to see if I couldn't develop a gadget or two.
It turns out to be a relatively straightforward process, and if you know HTML, CSS and JavaScript, you can have your own google gadget up and running in no time. Apart from the great documentation I mentioned earlier, a detailed hello-world style tutorial can be found at here.
