With a 9th grade class, we started the semester adding library widget & gadgets to the iGoogle.  I created several widgets/gadgets from widgetbox and then posted on our website.  Students added several widgets to their iGoogle page.  Then, they had to check the widget by the end of the week for their assignment. 

Another way to push information to students – I am hoping databases will eventually catch up with this trend.
