Widgets:
Widgets are embeddable flash or java applications you can add to a web page or blog and your viewer can interact with them. Above is Shelfari, a social book-sharing site, where I've posted our libraries latest acquisitions. Below is "The New York Times Best Seller Lists" and "Amazon Bestselling Books," both from Widgetbox. Find useful ones for your class web page, then copy the source code and paste to your site.
