Widget Watch: Scouting out the Valentines widgets
You'd think there would be dozens of fabulous widgets to choose from for Valentines day. You'd be wrong. The Valentines widget selection involves mighty slim pickings. Here are a few widgets we googled up for your romantic pleasure. You can create your own semi-custom Widget using Ben Kazez's Valentine Maker, offer an "I Love You" translator from Boer Attila or really dig deep at the bottom of the barrel with a couple of promotional widgets, including one for Britney Spear's new perfume.
Valentine Maker Create a custom Widget for Valentines day, from the maker of the John Edwards widget. You choose the color and the words.
Helzberg Diamonds Valentines Day Countdown Count down to Valentines day with a fairly unsubtle promotional widget from Helzberg Diamonds.
Britney Spears Midnight Fantasy Valentines Day Countdown Clock It's even more awful than the name suggests. Probably the worst Valentines day widget out there. Heck, this might be scraping the bottom of the barrel for all widgets in existence.
The Love Translator Translate the phrase "I Love You" in to bunches of different languages.

Why list "Valentine Maker" at "http://mac.softpedia.com"?? They don't make it, they don't sell it--they just "borrow" free software!
Heck, it is free! Why should softpedia get the hits?
I got my copy of Valentine Maker from the source--

Wishood developed a special widget which you could customize and offer visitors to send Granting Cards for Valentine's Day.
The widget can hold 3 wishes as teasers, upon clicking "grant it!" users will be re-directed to Wishood.com where they could edit the wish (and link) or get inspired by other people's wishes. Sending cards is free & regsiration free.
Take a few moments and check it on:
