Google Gadgets
After an 18 month absence, I have decided to get back into Google Gadget development. Two surprises!
- First, the old _IG gadget namespace is still around. Furthermore, the new gadgets namespace does not seem to work in web syndication. Seems I saw a post on how to resolve that. Will have to look for it later.
- There do not seem to be many new gadgets. Makes me wonder how many folks actually use the igoogle page.
- Marine Weather Observations Near You - This gadget accepts a locaton as city state, zip code or lat/long and returns a map showing buoys, coastal land stations and ships within 150 nautical miles of the location. USA Weather RADAR is also shown thanks to the good folks at Iowa State University. This is a tabbed gadget. The 'Map' tab contains the map of stations. Hovering over a marker on the map in the 'Statons' tab retrieves the current obserations from the NOAA National Data Buoy Center (NDBC) web site into a pop-up window. The 'Help' tab offers more information on this gadget.
- Unix Timestamp Calculator -Converts Unix Timestamps to date/times and vice versa.
- Peg Game - The classic pegs game on a triangle. Eliminate all but the last peg by jumping neighboring pegs. Written in Javascript/HTML/CSS.
- USA.gov Search - A search gadget for the USA.gov web portal.
- Weather Calculator - Weather Calculator calculates heat index and wind chill, and performs temperature, wind speed and barometric pressure unit conversions.
- Word Guess - Guess the five-letter word in five tries or less.
