It’s always the way that the most difficult looking things can be really easy (and vice versa)
I have been working through the site, line by line, debugging after the last upgrade. And there’s more to do.
However, this morning the Dear Leader and I were chatting about how to spread the word wider about the site, and I remembered we had discussed widgets a while back. I got well into widgets during my time with jiglu.com
I remembered that Widgetbox had some great tools for widget creation, so after some fiddling with the site, I was able to create a visually compelling widget that tells the world our latest missions
Next steps are to do this by category, and to let people sign up from a remote site.
Anyhow, for the moment, here’s the first one (which we can’t put on our own blog because WordPress.com don’t let us!)
