A new Google gadget! It’s been a while but I got the urge to put a new gadget togther.
So it’s a weather gadget, oh yawn! don’t we have a tonne of those already? Isn’t the official Google gadget for weather good enough? Well yes and no. I’ve been using the official Google weather gadget for ages but I’ve recently found that it no longer works with locations in the UK! So here’s my take on a weather gadget - it’s using the Google weather API (which is used on the iGoogle personalised site). To use it you simply enter your location as a city in the options - e.g. “London, UK” or “Cupertino”.
