Upload and rate widgets with Widgipedia
The recently launched Widgipedia let’s users upload and rate widgets. You can think of this site as the BuzzShout for the world of widgets. Since the new widget craze has swept the Web 2.0 community, Widgipedia looks like it would be a useful resource for widget developers and addicts.
In terms of features, Widgipedia isn’t pushing any new boundaries–users can submit, rate, comment on, and download widgets. They currently accept 12 types of widgets, including Opera, Dashboard, and Windows Sidebar Gadgets. Since the site is young, the overall selection is quite small.
The interface has a pleasing design. However, I do have one complaint. Almost every page on the site is served up via AJAX, and, as such, the site is pretty speedy. However, they are using AJAX to serve up entire listings on each page. In other words, there’s a considerable amount of data that is transmitted without page loads. For me, this causes major issues when using the back button. The bottom line? Page loads are okay for large page changes. Save the AJAX for smaller inline functions, such as voting or tagging.
