For instructions on inserting Widget code, see the bottom of the article Spice up your profile or blog with images, videos, and documents<\/a> <\/p>\n

I was chatting with Ronn BenHarav<\/a> about extending his profile, and it seems that he’s not alone in recognizing the possibilities of the Profile\/Blog\/Blog Sidebar editor.Ronn was looking for a way to show off his photography using a better method than uploading and inserting each image into a long document.<\/p>\n

Widgets, made popular by the modern blogging and social networking sites, allow users to insert pre-made or customizable boxes containing text or media from an external source onto a web page or desktop. For example, you can insert your local weather, a slide-show of your favorite images, your online calendar, or your blog posts from another site into your JobShuk profile. <\/p>\n

Widgets allow publishers to spread their information and content to other users or websites without building advanced import technology into the containing site.<\/p>\n

\"Widget<\/p>\n

This concept is not particularly new and has been used by online advertising publishers for a long time, but the development has been simplified by the popularity of XML and high-speed Internet. <\/p>\n

Widgets can be found at many locations, such as widgetbox<\/a>, or the website where your content is located. You can turn your blog into a widget using widgetbox’s blidgets tool.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

For Ronn, I suggested this site<\/a> because the script is said to support his photo albums at Zenfolio, as well as PicasaWeb albums.
This site suggests the Top 10 web widgets<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Find the right widget for you and your business and start wowing potential clients!<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
