cozychinese Posted September 25, 2007 at 06:06 AM Report Posted September 25, 2007 at 06:06 AM Hi, We have recently implemented a Google Gadget "Chinese Audio Word of the Day" and would appreciate your feedback on such gadget. The link to the gadget page is: http://www.cozychinese.com/google-gadget/ Your input is important to us. Thank you. Frank/ CozyChinese.COM Quote
mikevwilliams Posted September 25, 2007 at 08:38 AM Report Posted September 25, 2007 at 08:38 AM I like the idea of this gadget, but I have a suggestion. Is it possible to make this gadget for the Google desktop sidebar. I always have the sidebar on screen, so I feel it would be more useful if I could have this gadget in there, rather than have to go to the iGoogle page to see it. Thanks, Michael Quote
cozychinese Posted September 25, 2007 at 06:38 PM Author Report Posted September 25, 2007 at 06:38 PM Sure. If we can get enough people to be interested in a desktop gadget, we can surely develop one. We developed the "word of the day" gadget based on suggestions from our users too. Now we need to make sure that we have done it right before jumping to the next one. Quote

johnd Posted October 9, 2007 at 01:32 AM Report Posted October 9, 2007 at 01:32 AM I just added the gadget to my iGoogle, using Firefox 2.0. The first time I click on the audio, it plays the whole word "wo men" - for any subsequent click it only plays the second character "men". Quote
