David Lee King posted about the use of the Meebo widget in the Topeka library catalog and then posted again about the responses to his post about using the widget. All interesting conversations.

This was a very interesting discussion on the pratical use of widgets – to tie together different applications such as search and IM. I also think they could be used to communicate cross platform, so the library would be able to be accessed and communicated to from all different users on different communcation platforms.
