OK. My question is what is Yahoo! Widgets?
Am I the first one to ask a question in Yahoo! Widgets category?
Umm maybe.
Yahoo Widgets provide widgets. Widgets are basically little programs that you can use on other sites, such as Myspace, or your own website. They are not specific in their nature, so they could be absolutely anything.
I think the origin probably came from a contraction of 'window' and 'gadget', which I think pretty much explains what they are.
I think they should probably have been called thingummyjigs

Reply:Widget is a general-purpose term, or placeholder name, for any unspecified device, including those that have not yet been invented. It is commonly used in textbook and other examples where the identity of the product or function is irrelevant and could be distracting: students may be asked to design a business plan for the XYZ Widget Company. Compare Acme.
