Found Some Useful Widgets

Posted by: justbon In: Squidoo Updates

I’m not sure when Squidoo introduced some of their new widgets (I musta been sleeping), but I’ve found some useful ones which have helped me in updating some lenses.

I noticed a new Weather widget (from the Weather Channel), and I thought that this would be ideal for my lens about my husband’s hometown, Godalming in the UK. And it’s great that it works for British locations too. I’ve also added it to my new lens about my hometown, Akron Ohio, and my Cleveland Indians page.

I also discovered the Google Maps widget, which has helped with the latter lenses, but it does not appear to recognize UK locations. :( Check out how both widgets look!

So, if like me, you haven’t found these little treasures, which can make your lenses look even cooler – then check them out the next time you’re editing a relevant lens.

There look to be other new additions too…great ways to update your content!

edit: I have discovered that Google Maps does indeed recognize UK locations :)

Cool – I might have to use that on my lenses about Dorset. Thanks.

So your hubby is from Surrey? I’m from Dorset, but I spent 4 years in Morden in Surrey, just outside Wimbledon. Small world…
