While I Was Out: Fall Staycation Reading List Ways to Influence User Behavior
Oct 21

Like most, I’ve gone through many a gadget. However, deleting this particular gadget was kind of a bummer.

I’ve had the Dictionary.com gadget for a long time, but recently they’ve added extremely prominent ad space to their once-fun widget. The ad space includes a large banner and a website address. It is in fact larger than the the word of the day. What an insult.

[UPDATE: While writing this brief opinion piece, I had to add dictionary.com to iGoogle. No ads... and an abridged definition was available upon mouse-over. Still, not as simple as the previous widget and so deleted.]
