Greetings everyone

My name is Alina. I am working for a software company. It is the first project of that kind and it is pretty hard for me.

We currently working on the development of commercial software package for building widgets.

I think you have more experience of working with these programs, and if you could help me it would be great!

What do you think about this kind of software?
Can you suggest something to increase value of this software to users?

Cheers,

Alina

One key element for a widget, IMO, is that it has to be a win-win for the host site and user site. It should give the user site some kind of benefit - info about the user's activity at the host site, or perhaps a dyanmic "top" listing, etc. The host site should get branding and linkage, and perhaps interactivity.

Widget is the term used to describe little application that people can share and use to create composite applications of their own making.

I am looking to build a small portfolio of widgets that I have developed. So if you have an idea then please contact myself. I would not be looking for payment as this would an opportunity to get some experience.
