Google Gadgets to Add Value to Blogs?
Google has just announced its launch of Google Gadgets. According to the press release:

"Google Gadgets for your webpage can help make a site dynamic and rich with content. Google Gadgets, which have long been available for users to add to the Google homepage and Google Desktop, are now available for webpage owners to add to their own webpages." Google Gadgets Press

Depending on your website or blog's theme, you can choose from a wide variety of applications that will compliment your content. For example, if you are blogging about games, a Sudoku Puzzle game application from Google Gadgets can be easily placed on your blog by just pasting the code (which you can get from the Google Gadget directory) onto your webpage or blog template.

Many of the gadgets or applications are not Google's own products so expect to get hold of huge number of add-ons.

The Google Gadgets directory has the following categories:

News - which contains apps for weather updates, NASA image of the day to Digg News

Tools - which includes apps for Google Map, Wikipedia, Babelfish, etc.

Communication - has MSN Messenger 2.0, MySpace Alerts Gadget, Free Text Messages, and more

Finance - has a loan calculator, stock charts, etc.

Sports - contains the World Cricket Map, Live Sports Scores, Sports Videos and more

Lifestyle - includes Bible Verse of the Day, Daily Horoscope, iTunes feeds, Netflix Quick Access among others

Technology - has Today's Woot, Current Moon Phase, NOAA satellite, etc.

Start cherrypicking your Google Gadgets now.

What's in Google Gadgets for me as an online ad earner? Automatic content update equals value equals traffic equals money? What do you think?

I think Google Gadgets will be even bigger during late 2007 and beginning of 2008. The gadgets directory is growing by the day, and third-party gadget directories starts to pop up. For example Google Mini Apps Gadgets directory and the Google Modules directory(ok, maybe not so new).
I belive there will be more directories since the official gadgets directory doesn't have any tags for their listings.
