Quick SMS

Do you want your readers flaming you on your cell phone? Now they can with the new text messaging widget from Martin! ;-)

MSN Status

April 28, 2006

The new MSN Status Widget grabs your MSN Messenger status and nickname and shows it in your sidebar. It doesn’t seem to expose your email address, which is what someone would need to know to add you to their contacts and send a message. I suppose that’s good.

SubscribeMe

Here's another piggyback widget. This one augments Semiologic’s Subscribe Me plugin for use as a widget.

Democracy

Brian’s Latest Comments

April 17, 2006

Carsten wrote a nice alternative to the Recent Comments widget:

I just ported the Binary Blue specific Sidebar Widget, which adds full support for Brian’s Latest Comments, into a general purpose Sidebar Widget.

It may be a while before Brian updates his plugin with a built-in widget.
