Silvester: A really cool Silverlight Twitter Gadget

June 26th, 2008

tmp1B7F

Silverster  is a Silverlight powered Twitter Gadget that you can use in your blog and that can replace the minimalistic or overcomplicated options around and offer you a rather slick gadget that looks like a WPF or AIR  app.

This Widget was developed by Emil Stoychev, and not only can you grab the Gadget code from the Silvester page for use but if you are interested in Silverlight, Emil also shows you exactly how it was made so you can make your own version of it if you can.

The name silvester came from tweety feline antagonist, silvester the cat. odd reference yet fitting for the play of words. funny name or not, Silvester is the most slick Silverlight Twitter gadget you will find right now, so that is worth a try.

TwitterFountain Widget: Fast Stream of Tweets and Flickr Photos at the same time.

June 26th, 2008

tmp1A6D

There are a lot of widgets for Twitter, and there are a lot of widgets for Flickr.  but how about a Mashlet  that combines the two of them into one?. specially designed for people that get bored easily. that is where TwitterFountain gets into the rescue. This Mashlet (mashup widget) can stream photos by tag from flickr so they can serve as a ever changing background for your Tweets. then just add your Twitter Username and voila. a almost insane burst of photos and tweets together in the same widget. another of those things that could only have came from the Dutch.

Fortunately you can control the crazyness with the widget controls to set the pace of your Photo and Tweet stream, choose the colors and also the size of the widget too. that makes it a cool and unique novelty widget. all of the controls are within the widget so anyone can use it and share it easily.

The Widget is in Flash so it can be placed pretty much everywhere but you will have to copy and paste the code by yourself.

Embeddable Friendfeed Lifestream Widget

June 22nd, 2008

It is been a while i talked about the official but unreleased FriendFeed Widget.

Such widget is still not out or has been updated in any way and it may have proven to be too simple to many. But if you cannot wait for Friendfeed to get its act together and release a final version of that widget. i got something that can be more satisfying without the need of using other service but friendfeed.

A iframe widget generator for your FriendFeed Lifestream that was made by Arvind “Random Walker “ Narayanan where instead of having just the 5 last updates you can have the last 30 updates, choose the size at will and change the background color so you can integrate it in your blog or website.

The only thing i think it is missing, would be to be able to put a image as header and chose a border but maybe if Arvind does a second version, that will be added.

TwitterCounter is a service that offers a chicklet so you can keep track of your Twitter Followers and also to give you bragging rights and to give another novelty to put in your blog and show how good of a tweeterer you are.

It is very simple, you only input your Twitter username and you will be greeted with a Feedburner like page. just like this one that shows leo laporte twittercounter chicklet. and just like in feedburner your count is updated daily.

As you can also see you are then offered the code to place in your blog and if you are not content with the style of the default chicklet you can choose from four colors in total.

I find this a cool novelty for microbloggers and a fitting homage to that blogging on its own that microblogging is now getting counter services too. it shows that microblogging is now fully assimilated into the web.

Now get yours:
