Widget Index
In internet lingo, a widget is a object designed and hosted by one web site for display on other web sites. For example, the calendar of events on this site can be displayed on other sites with a line of javascript. Widgets are often desigend for entertainment. For example, one can display YouTube videos with a snippet of code.
The most common use of widgets is advertisering. Such widgets allow advertisers to display detailed information about sales, specials and coupons. This page is an index to widgets used on the Links Alive site. The primary reason for making this index is so that I can keep track of the widgets that I add.
If you have a YouTube video or widget that you would like me to include in the Community Color directories, send me the link to the widget with my contact form.
