Widgets and Blidgets

I love the new language that new technology brings. Do you know your widget from your blidget? They are small applications written by third parties that you can add to your blog. I’ve added a counter that tells me how many times the site has been visited and a vodpod widget that displays video’s I have stored in another website. There are literally thousands of widgets you can add to your blog. Widgetbox claim to be the worlds largest widget directory.
One of the features of widgetbox is that you can instantly turn your blog itself into a blog widget - blidget. You can see my blidget on the left column of this blog and if you click on get widget you could add it to your blog another way of keeping track of your favorite blogs.
