t-shirts, style guide
We're coming up on the end of this week's t-shirt giveaway. So far, four developers have won shirts for submitting widgets that meet the
Style Guide guidelines. They are:
Jens Minor for GoogleWatchBlog:

http://widgets.opera.com/widget/5281zomg for Online Player Search:
http://widgets.opera.com/widget/5280and grafio for the Widget Bar:
http://widgets.opera.com/widget/5283There are more widgets that have almost qualified - one or two small issues hold them back - so hopefully we'll add more to the list tomorrow. But remember you only have the rest of the day Sunday to submit them. Good luck.
And don't forget to add a close button...hint hint.

web chats, style guide, widgets
Got some great news to share with you. This week, we're starting regular developer IRC web chats with our Web Applications team. If you can't get the answer you want on the forums, jump on over to our chat line and hit us with your questions about widgets. At the beginning of each week, I'll post the topic and time of that week's chat. We'll also post the transcripts online.
Without further ado, this week we're going to cover the brand new
Opera Widgets Style Guide. Since we just posted it the other day, we're sure you have a lot of questions about style and usability of widgets. We're here to help you, so just ask us.
