This is just amazing - if you can program a widget, or as Google calls them, a gadget, you could get money from Google. Gadgets are fun, useful mini-applications that help you do everyday tasks. There are desktop or online gadgets (like one that shows the weather, or the one I have that scolls news).

Google Gadget Ventures will grant $5,000 to developers with at least 250,000 page views per week to their gadget.

After that, you could be eligible to turn your gadget into a business and can apply to get $100k to do it.

I think some Utah bloggers/programmers could pull this off. How about a Jibberjobber gadget? a job seeker’s gadget? a linked in or social networking gadget? A keyword tool gadget (TagJungle). A stay-focused gadget that has your tasks to get done or “to do” list? I need to find a delicious gadget so when Paul Wilson adds a new page I see it.
