Dungeon Runners Widgets

I've created a Dungeon Runners News and "The Blog" Widgets that can be added to your websites, blogs, myspace accounts, etc...

News Widget

The Blog Widget

Here are two different views of the news widget in action (a test blog template I threw together):

FYI - the feeds are:

Thanks guys, but I don't know if it's wise to link this to your news feed. I'm pretty sure that'll tear the very fabric of the space + time continuum, having a widget that links to news about the widget that links to news that links to a widget that links to news, etc...

Seriously, I hope this helps spread the word since it can be easily embedded in to many sonet apps.

Hey, Ripper, can you make embedding it into Facebook a bit nicer? Have you looked at the App Accelerator?

Check this link for more info.

When I add it in its current form to Facebook, I get a movie addition.

Ok - I've turned the blog and news feeds into a facebook applications. Whenever you add them to facebook from the widgetbox gallery, they'll add as applications instead of movie posts. Once at least 5 people have subscribed to each application, I can submit them for the facebook directory.

Please let me know if there are any other applications (bebo, for example) I need to address.

Very nice indeed Rip. I went for one myself but hopes for a RSS-flow wich I never found so I never got anywhere.

As for now, I re-write all news I find (from news-section, forums and more) by hand with my own words, but I'm sure there will be room for your widget on TheLordships in the future too.
