What are gadgets?
Gadgets are miniature web objects that you can copy & paste into your own webpage, for free. You can improve your site with gadgets that tell your visitors the weather in your city, countdown to your grand opening, or even local gas prices, just to name a few.
Adding content-rich gadgets to your webpage can make your site even more interesting and useful to your visitors and keep them coming back.
