Session Abstract:
- Widgets are pieces of web sites or small web applications developed to be used as tools, games, information kiosks, etc. for your desktop. They range from very simple to very complex, and for the most part they are elegant. They allow the user to dictate what parts of the web they want to have available to them on their desktop. In this session we'll show some of the tools used for widget development as well as discuss how and where anyone can get started in their own creation of a widget.
