I just discovered the Firefoxit Firefox widgets extension. I’m still a little skeptical about a widgets system based and run from within Firefox. We’ll have to see how these widgets develop. Possible UNEASY Firefoxit widget?

Firefoxit is a Firefox extension that puts tiny little widgets or web applications on a kind of desktop launched from Firefox. [...] Sometimes apps just don’t look cool occupying an entire webpage. Firefoxit widgets are intended to be anything from a weather widget to a notepad or a spreadsheet.

    It shouldn’t be a system hog. Hopefully. They claim the widgets use about 400K each. Not too shabby. The real question is how Firefox will handle the extension.
