There are a growing number of online widget makers now available, but the one service I keep going back to is Sprout Builder. It’s easy to use but still quite powerful and flexible in what it offers.
In the above video I show how you can build your own Sprout Builder widget for your blog in around 5 minutes, although I take 10 minutes to explain it ?
An example of a Sprout Builder widget can be seen here with the QMeme widget in the right hand sidebar.
