iPhone widgets & A family that could use an iPhone

For those of you who have an iPhone that isn’t cardboard or dispenses mints, you have probably experimented with the many iPhone applications available for use. If you aren’t satisfied with the many applications available, Plusmo has more than 20,000 widgets that you can use on your iPhone. Ever stop and think “Gee, wouldn’t it be great if I could have a Peanuts comic strip in an easy to read widget that updates each and everyday? Maybe you didn’t have that exact though, but the point is now you can.

The Plusmo service supports not only the iPhone but also most other Java-enabled phones such as the Blackberry. You can create and customize your own widgets from sources like XML and RSS, so if you haven’t found the widget you are looking for after searching all 20,000 of them, you can just create your own.

This service, to me, sounds sort of like an online equivalent of the Dashboard. All widgets are free and are already up and online for you to enjoy.

On another note, The Duggars just had their 17th child. Yes, 17. I think this family could use an iPhone.
