Customizing IBM Lotus Connections 2.5 with Lotus Widget Factory and Google gadgets

IBM Lotus Connections 2.0 introduced the concept of widgets as a way to extend and customize the Home page feature of the product. A widget is a small piece of code that can run within a Web application and display any custom content. Lotus Connections supports widgets written according to the IBM-defined iWidget specifications. Released in 2009, Lotus Connections 2.5 enhances the support for widgets in the Home page, Communities, and Profiles features by providing additional placement areas where the administrator can deploy widgets acquired from other developers.
