Google announces ‘Gadgets for your Website‘ today. This is a cool idea but all the gadgets are, well, hideous. And most of them are fairly worthless. But, if you are a developer you can create your own gadgets. Will this catch on? I doubt it. They are ugly and provide little value. I wonder if Yahoo will release widgets for the web? Their ‘widgets’ are far cooler than Google’s ‘gadgets’.

Below are Technorati and Google Zeitgeist gadgets. The technorati tracker is actuall pretty cool because it allows your readers to track the conversation they are currently reading about. Although it doesn’t appear to be working that great. The gadget below is supposed to be pulling posts from Technorati tagged ‘ie7′ and it does not appear to be doing so.

Get your own gadgets.
