Summer of Widgets

Wednesday, July 8, 2009 1:48:43 PM

Each week during the competition, three netbooks (Samsung NC20) bundled each with a Nokia N96 handset, will be awarded to the three best new Widgets entered into the Competition (on Betavine) and uploaded to the Vodafone widgets developer platform.

Even if you don’t win (or want to compete), you can still upload and feature your Widget(s) on widgets.opera.com.

I'm not really a widget user :/

But I'm always impressed by the community's creativity

Some people really have talent!

Got 1 question about creating widgets:
I own no Nokia oder vodafone phone so is it possible for me to check wheather a widget runs on these phones?

I know theres a widget emulator ( http://dev.opera.com/articles/view/widget-emulator/ ).
But is there a real phone emulator for this?

Yet another work for free contest/platform:

“You grant to Us a worldwide, non-exclusive and royalty-free licence to use, operate, copy, distribute and otherwise deal with Your App/Widget (including the right to sub-license to any company in the Vodafone Group) for the purpose of Hosting Your App/Widget for distribution via the Distribution Mechanism.”

Hi, just to clarify we’re keen to enable developers to familiarise themselves with the technology and approach that Vodafone is adopting. We will be introducing monetisation for
apps in the future - more details on that in due course - and by running the Summer of Widgets competition and other initiatives, such as offering the ability to distribute apps to vodafone customers, we're hoping to get developers to involved community now.

I hope this clarifies things, but please feel free to ask further questions on Betavine forums.
