Facebook Share

Encourage your users to share your blog posts on Facebook using this simple gadget.

This is a simple yet effective gadget which enables you and your readers to share any post or page in your blog on their Facebook profile page by adding a linked button in the layout of your blog which automatically picks up the URL and title of the page.

My only quarrel with this gadget is that the button is not centered within the gadget space. On some layouts the positioning of the Facebook button appears awkward. Otherwise this is a truly useful gadget!

This is a simple yet effective gadget which adds an "UpTweet" button to your blog layout, enabling readers to tweet about any post or page on your blog.

My only gripe about this gadget is that the button is not centered within the gadget area, making the positioning appear awkwardly on some layout styles.

iPhone Store: Top Paid Apps

iTunes Store: Top Paid Applications This gadget will display the top 25 Paid Apps at the iPhone App Store. It will also give you the option to display just the title of the story or include the date and summary. It can show up to 25 apps but the default value is only 3. To change the default value go to settings and change the value.

Note: this is a rather wide gadget which will display scrollbars to the bottom in narrow widget sections, and also on the right side in cases where the height is too short to allow for all content to display.

Virtual Stripper

Don't worry - this is not a particularly rude gadget though I'd advise you not to install or view if you are offended by barely-clad ladies (hence the reason there is no screenshot for this particular one).

This is a Flash-based gadget with which you can "command" the character by typing words into the box below the video.

The "stripper" will respond by either following the command, or expressing her "misunderstanding" of your command.

Frankly, I find this hilarious! Aside from her attire, the character is rather "family friendly" and will not perform any command which would be viewed as unsavoury on a public blog. That is, unless anyone out there can find a command which works...? If so, please do let me know about unsavoury content so I can edit this family friendly post =)
