Widgeting RSS

I have some free time playing around with widget today, which bring me to WidgetBox.One the largest widget sites on the net, I guess.

With its tool, creating widget was simple. There are different type of widget you can choose from such as for Flash, HTML or even Google Gadget.

I’m looking something that can display my RSS feed nicely, and there you go my first attempt (and my only one).

As I say earlier this is only for fun, and I’m not gonna put it here (maybe somewhere else). Widget is definitely No-No if you put a performance ahead of fancy looking blog, but in case you think otherwise, grab it here.
