Widget Talk

Overcrowding the blog with various 3rd party widgets might slow down your page. It certainly makes our blog slower when the servers hosting the scripts for those widgets are slow.

I like Wibiya too, for it aggregates all neat little widgets and I never found it making my page slow.

I find Feedjit on almost every blog page now, that asserts Renie's statement

OK Vee, so third party widgets may slow down our page, hmm.

Yes, now I got it what is Wibiya. But really dont know how it helps? gotta read myself.

Anyways thanks VEE!

Thanks Just a pen in my hand, good info. I have most of these except wibiya and shoutbox.  I put a chatterbox and nobody wrote there, so i removed it.

Of course, one can find things on google search, but nothing like asking the blogger pals!!

According to our stats - the feedjit widget is the most popular in the IndiBlogosphere. IndiRank follows in the second place.

Thanks Renie!  You emerge suddenly like God, I really like it when you comment on my thread.

OK so stats say so?! Feedjit is popular truly and IndiRank is actually a thing of pride for most of us.  I have placed it on the Top RHS of my blog! Love to show off my first rank!

Thanks again!

what's that? The one to show forum's activity on your blog?

@ Mag - what's Wibiya widget? tell something pls.

@ Rohini- hey thanks dear, just saw that thread. thanks, it was useful.

@ Choto Cheeta - tell me which one using  HTML?

Oops!

Restless - Wibiya is the one I'm using on my blogpage. On the bottom end of the page, you can find a tool bar like Widget.

@ Rohini- hey thanks dear, just saw that thread. thanks, it was useful.

@ Choto Cheeta - tell me which one using  HTML?

Cheeta possibly means the 'Add HTML/ Javascript' widget in Blogger. You can install any third-party code using that widget.

Thanks Rohini, I got it. But in that third party HTML, what are your favourites, I wanted to know.

I remember answering this question on this forum earlier. Here goes:

Though I am now a little disappointed with PostRank. I have removed it, Skribit and the Word of the Day widget. I'll still recommend the Random posts button.
