I had to give the upper portion of this post over to the “RateItAll” widget, from RateItAll.com
This has to be one of the coolest looking widgets I have ever laid eyes on. The colors seem to go well with whatever blog scheme I could imagine. There is a shine to it…literally! All of the animations work seamlessly. Even the most picky blogger would have to admit to the beauty of this widget.
Ok…so it looks cool. What does it do?
RateItAll allows you to do just that…rate everything. From your new Cadillac to your 5 year old dishwasher. (not your kids…but I suppose you could rate them as well) Everything is fair game for a rating. These ratings can be shared to create a community and allow others to make informed decisions based on others reviews.
With the RateItAll widget, visitors to your blog can easily rate your blog and write a review of your blog right from the widget.
This is fantastic! The readers don’t need to leave to make use of the widget. I know the creator of this widget insisted that people stay on site as much as possible.
How do I get it?
RateItAll widget is still in closed beta. If you read WidgetBlog-sexywidget you will be the first to know of the official release. I would also suggest that you subscribe to the sexywidget RSS feed 
Where can I use it?
This is a Flash widget. This means that it should work wherever you want to post it. (provided you can edit the template or add widgets) It comes in two widths. 170 px and 210 px both are blog sidebar friendly. (my sidebar is 300 px) There are four colors to choose from…including Black, Green, Blue and Red.
I would like to see more customization options. But this would eliminate the Web2.0 shine and awesome rounded edges. So for now we will have to enjoy it the way it is.
Sorry LC for the delay in posting this review…I have no excuse.
