Cubs/Red Sox Gadget!
March 21st, 2008
We have published a new version of a Google Gadget that counts up the days since the Cubs or Red Sox have won the World Series and how many days are left until opening day. It should be in the iGoogle Directory soon, but for now you can add it to your iGoogle page or your own website by using the following URL:
From a technical standpoint, the count-up and countdown functions were developed in Flash and called to the gadget using Google’s APIs. Other APIs used include tab functionality and the second tab features an RSS feed that displays news from whichever team you choose to display. We at MC+A recommend the Chicago Cubs, naturally, despite the HUGE number displayed since they won. With 500+ users already, we’d like to see more fans display this gadget on their pages.
