These widgets are sweet

I’m totally sold on the idea of widgets versus total HTML customization now. The hard stuff (getting the CSS to work right, tweaking until you’re sick, etc.) is done for you. And the fun stuff — deciding which content to display and where — is even easier. Just last month I was strugging with some cheesy feed2js function to get search results into the sidebar of a Blogger blog. With these new WP.com widgets, I could do it in 10 seconds.

I had to switch themes to take advantages of this sweetness. I could really use widgets for the Simpla theme.
