Amanda, Ani DiFranco’s self-proclaimed “social networking maven”, has been generating some comment over on MySpace with her blog post “What the hell is a widget?” In part, she says:
Well, for our purposes (and the purposes of this blog), a widget is a little box that we’ve embedded into our profile that does lots of stuff. And this thing is really neat-o, people.
In one little box, you have Ani info at your fingertips, including tour dates, news updates, music, graphics, and even video…
Yup, that’s pretty much it. And our favourite response?
Clearly, a ‘widget’ is a thingumy, doohickey or whoosiewhatsit.
Whatever it is, it’s pretty cool … now I want one.Posted by Craig Hughes on Friday, May 09, 2008 at 5:29 PM
