Widgets

I know there's a lot of people interested in various apps that will add unique capabilities to their phone, but one of the things I'm most excited about are the Widgets that the andoid Home screen can support.

The G1 will ship with the Clock, Photo, and Google Search widgets which you can simply plop down on the home screen, but I'm hoping the developers among us will work quickly to create additional widgets that will make our devices a bit more fun to use.

Widget Ideas

• Weather widget
• Annimated Pet widget (create and customize your pet, pet can roam around the three different desktops, play and feed pet with other widget food or toys)
• Twitter Widget
• Stock Widget
• Music Player Widget

Feel free to list off a few widgets you might want to see on your Android phone. Though it really doesn't add any functionality to the phone, the pet widget I described above would be a lot of fun. Just imagine a little pet running around your screen and leaving paw marks everywhere, moving you other icons around and having a good time. I'd definitely be willing to pay money for something like that.

Imagine that pet widget, but with "friends" added to a list inside the widget's prefs...your pets can wander between different G1 handsets to visit, and come back when called!

You know the pet Widget is actually a very interesting idea! My votes in for the pet widget!

I already tried to make Brady do it but he says he can't.

Another widget that would be nice is a Post-it Note widget for tasks which you may not want on your calendar. I use a post-it note app for my PC and I love it.
