StickiWidgets

Here are some video trivia game widgets from PopJax.com. The widgets are pretty straight forward and interesting enough to pass the time. They are leveraging YouTube videos and YouTube services for their widgets. This is a smart move as that will significantly lower their overhead.

The widgets have login and registration within the widgets, this is a nice touch. No need to force people back to home base if it’s not needed. Though, there is a Community/Social Network going on.

Overall, the widgets are nice. A couple of minor layout type bugs, but one thing that we would have liked to see is better viral distribution tools. The embed code by itself just doesn’t cut it these days. Especially with services from the likes of Clearspring and Gigya, there’s just no excuse.

Congratulations to Kansas on their big win over Memphis, 75-68 in overtime. CBS has a NCAA Tournament channel on YouTube with game highlights for every game. However, if you head on over to March Madness on Demand, you will get all of the highlights and full games with much better video quality.

Here’s the game highlights from YouTube for last night’s game.

This is a bit old, but in case you haven’t seen it yet, it’s a great sketch staring the internet. The characterizations of Google, YouTube, Amazon, Digg, eBay, MySpace, Facebook and others are spot on, which makes this video as funny as it is. Enjoy and have a great weekend…
