Description:	Produce Our PowerPoint-style drag-and-drop editor helps you produce a widget that matches your unique look. You can connect your widget to your websites' content by literally connecting dots between components. In the past, custom designed widgets that integrated dynamic data such as scores or comments required experienced programmers for each destination. Now with iWidgets, you can quickly produce sophisticated widgets that your users can use to show off what they have done on your site. Publish iWidgets' patent-pending WidgetWORA™ technology publishes your widget as a native widget on each destination. Native widgets fit the look of a destination, can access destination data like profile information and social graphs, and can post interesting events to a person's news feed. Previous generation widget solutions simply jam a square of identical, standalone Flash into destinations. Native widgets are much more viral and used far more often than Flash widgets, as proven by the vast majority of Facebook's top 100 applications, which are real Facebook applications with canvas pages and blue buttons, not squares of Flash. Promote It is incredibly difficult to get your widget installed on multitudes of social network profiles and portals pages. iWidgets helps you kickstart your campaign with links you can add to your site to incent your users to add your widget the next time they do a user-centric activity such as add a comment or design n outfit. iWidgets will maximize viral channels on each destination, so that your widgets will always take advantage of all available notifications, invites, and news feed updates. You can track your widgets' success with existing analytics solutions such as Google Analytics. Soon iWidgets will manage the purchase of install inventory from our freely hosted widgets as well as from networks such as RockYou, Social Media, and Slide. Buying widget installs to kickstart your widget campaign will be completely frictionless, and you will only pay for results!
