Abstract

Widgets may generally be used to convey information from one or more content sources to a user device. The widgets may operate on the user device and be configured to detect and receive new information feeds. The new information feeds may be filtered according to various factors including user preferences. When new information is received for a widget, the widget may include a new information indicator. Further, widget clients may be used to manage the widgets including the setting of various options and modes. A widget client may also be configured to receive widget recommendations from one or more widget providers as well as to provide traffic information for one or more widgets. Additionally, widgets may be sent from one device to another device through a widget service provider.
