A reader of this blog sent me an email a couple of weeks ago, asking me to consider porting my Hellenic Reverse Directory Lookup widget (HRDL) for Apple’s Dashboard in Mac OS X to the Widsets service provided by Nokia. Over the past year or so I’ve been emailed another two or three times by readers asking me to ‘port’ the widget to several ‘platforms’ including Windows Vista ‘Gadgets’, Yahoo!/Konfabulator widgets etc. The reason I am writing this post in English is because I’d like to express my impression of the Widsets platform along with my explanation as to why I’m not going to bother with porting the HRDL widget to it.
