WordPress Widget tutorial Friday 2006-04-14
If you use WordPress, and follow what happens at the WordPress dot Com blogger site or in the WordPress community, you haven’t missed the new web 2.0 Ajaxian way to treat Widgets. If you have, here’s a short resume to get you in touch.

For some reason it struck me as incredibly nice and silly, so I decided I wanted it on my blog. However, I wasn’t comfortable with just editing the theme. What if I wanted to move it? – Thus the decision to make it a widget was made. I googled around a bit and found a nice tutorial of widgets which contained all I needed to do this. And thus the CEDS widget was born. I shall make the source public as soon as I can be bothered to put up a directory structure on alternating.net. In the meanwhile, drop me an email if you want it.
