Are you a Widget developer? Do different Widget formats have you down? This Widget will end your misery.

Widget Converter will take a Widget which runs in the Yahoo! Widget Engine and convert it into a Widget format of your choosing, be it a folder, a zipped Widget, or the latest flat Widget format. As a bonus, it will clean up your Widget a bit in the conversion process!

Note that this Widget is a developer tool, and it is not written for converting similar accessory applications for other runtime environments to work with the Yahoo! Widget Engine.

With the new Yahoo! Gallery Widget, you can get Widgets faster than ever -- without even opening a web browser. The Gallery Widget allows you to search for Widgets or browse the newest Widgets by category. The mini version of this Widget gives you an update, right in the Dock, of how many new Widgets have been added to the Gallery since the last time you checked.

The Yahoo! Gallery Widget is part of the Yahoo! Widgets 4 installation, but is offered here in the event that you've lost the Widget.
