Widgetbox unveils devShare, a revenue sharing program for widgets
Widgetbox, the largest source of widgets on the web, has partnered with RockYou to offer revenue sharing for widget developers. RockYou will sell advertising in Facebook apps created with Widgetbox’s new ‘App Accelerator’. Developers will split the revenue 50/50 with Widgetbox.
The App Accelerator is designed to make creating Facebook apps straight forward and easy. Cool!
Opinion
Here’s another entrant in the race to exploit Facebook. Yeah, you can make money with it, but you won’t strike it rich. Widgetbox will though!
I’m tired of Facebook apps at this point. Who has the time to sift through thousands of these things and finally find one that you like, just to discover that you really have no options and the thing doesn’t really appear to change the appearance of your profile. Remember the first generic foods in the grocery stores? Black and white labels that said things like ‘Beer’ and ‘Pretzels’. This is what I see when I am on Facebook looking at my profile. ‘Facebook profile #5441287…’ Blah.

might be a silly question but just out of curiosity, would you use the app from widgetbox?
I’ve got some widgets at widgetbox and I’m still not quite sure whether using the facebook app accelerator or not as I have read some negative reviews in their forums…
salut!

Yeah I’m getting a lil tired of these Facebook Widget/Modules myself. Some are Fun but 1 Send yer Friendz a Drink App gives U a choice of Fizzy Water, Coffee + Strawberry Punch + Green Tea!! WooHooo!! Party Down!! Ironically they do sometimes feature a c0ol Drink o the Day - But do they let ya Send that to yer Friendz?? Hell No!!

Ernesto,
I might consider using the app from widgetbox only if I had an original idea. At this point, creating another app that offers some slightly different options from one that already exists is a complete waste of time.
Billy,
The ’send a drink’ is seriously lacking! We should be able to create our own drinks and include recipes if need be. Then that app may serve a useful purpose.
