According to Google they are made by Google users and can be placed on any page on the web. Gadgets are becoming a big thing on the web. When browsing my Google account I found the gadgets page, which is constantly added to by Google users everyday. These gadgets aren't only found on Google, you can find them on Facebook, blog sites, or just about anywhere on the web. You can become a fan of a TV show or add a countdown to your profile and you become an advertiser for that show or brand. As Google says these gadgets might come in handy for you at work if you need a countdown or a list maker or a calendar, the gadget possibilities are endless.
A new gadget I found on the New York Times website "Friday Fun Tip: Amazon's Universal Wish List Button." This is one cool gadget because you can be on any site and want something but you aren't ready to buy it yet so you click your the Wish List button on your browser and Amazon saves your item for you for future time of purchase. Wondering how you getit? Well you just need to drag and drop the Universal Wish List Button from Amazon onto your browser and its there for as long as you want it to be. http://gadgetwise.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/01/23/friday-fun-tip-amazons-universal-wish-list-button/?ref=technology
Along with many others I really enjoy these gadgets. They are fun and easy to put on your profile, there is a gadget for everything. Some of my gadgets on my Google home page are the weather, Frogger, Tetris, driving directions, html tips, quotes of the day, and date & time. I have the option to have multiple homepages also, so if I can't fit all of my gadgets on one page I can add another page for more!
