Widgetbox
Hi guys,
Does anyone here use a website called widgetbox? It allows you to turn your rss feeds and other website elements into widgets for users to easily add to there blogs websites etc.
But its got a function for syndicating it thought social networking sites as well like facebook.
The whole thing looks brilliant, takes you though a interactive walk though for adding the app with iframes BUT when you finish and view your app it doesn't work.
My question is, has anyone used this and it actually worked?

I have used SpringWidgets
I like the rss reader, I use it on my personal site for a DZone feed
I'm a sucker for widgets (meebo, Jango, Google Gadgets etc) - I've heard of widgetbox but haven't tasted (yet)

I have tried widgetbox and like it a lot. After you make a widget, you "publish" it, and then , if it's interesting, total strangers grab it and place it on their site. Which gives you a free link or links back to your site. I've used it to hold an RSS feed output from my site. for example, check the widget showing on biodieselstock dot com. That's built from the rss feed from the site - gives users a menu to browse.
Just be careful with any widgets - some of them can slow down page load time.
