WidgetsWidget (window+gadget) This is a graphical module, small programs that hang on the desktop and can be used by you all the time - see the time, weather, mail, news, fresh comics, play some unpretentious game, and quickly get information without using a web browser. To install widgets, you need to download a special program.
What is a widget?
Widgets are based on standard web technologies, including CSS and JavaScript, but they are not always strictly considered AJAX products, since they can not communicate with a remote server. The recommendations for widget developers say that it's better to give the code the ability to work when there is no connection to the network.
Software
To view the latest NTV news, you need to download Yahoo! Widget Engine - the platform on which these scanty programs run - and, in fact, the widget itself.
Yahoo! Or Opera?
The most popular widgets are made by Opera and Yahoo !. But they are different. Yahoo! Makes a platform that loads into autoload and uses the resources of the system. I do not know about you, but I do not like adding something to autoloading. Opera in this case is preferable because it uses the browser to work its widgets. But in this and the minus of Opera because the widgets only work when the browser is running. Yahoo! Widgets Always work. View Most widgets are useless and will be in demand for adolescents who are interested in more decorations than functionality. Nevertheless, some may be useful. |
