The del.icio.us Tag-O-meter widget.

I saw this first on a Zaptxt on TechCrunch at about 9pm on 12/20 exactly 30 minutes later I received another ZapTXT indicating Mashable has a post about this. These are both great resources on Web 2.0 and Tech related news.

It’s a good widget…but it could use a few options. (you can view another version at the bottom of this page)

The very first thing on the list is customization. Users need to be able to alter things like size and border/background color.

I also should be able to change the text to read “be the first to bookmark this post “. In fact I should be able to change it to anything I want.

Another option could be, allowing the user to alter the layout of the widget. This is kind of petty though, so I’ll stick to color, size and text options.

Things to know

-This is a JavaScript widget. (no MySpace or other JS restricted platforms)
-This widget allows readers to add your post/page to their del.icio.us bookmarks.
