Widgets

Widgets are small, simple applications with chunks of code that can be easily embedded into web pages and blogs. The administrator can update content within the widget no matter where it is posted.

Why use widgets?

Widgets can be embedded on any social networking site, blog, or personal homepage. By giving users access to the embed code, you allow them to become a personal brand advocate. Every person who visits their site will see your widget and be able to easily link back to your organization’s homepage. Widgets can also be downloaded to a desktop, keeping users involved even when they aren’t on your site.
