All of the widget sites I’ve found so far are java based. Are there any good HTML based widget sites?

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Well, it depends what you want the widget to actually DO.

Here is the story: WordPress.COM limits what code we can use here because this is a multi-user platform which means we all share the same underlying theme and wordpress files and any bad code, or security issue introduced by a user could bring down a bunch of blogs.

Most widget out there use javascript or flash or iframes which means they will not work here at wordpress.COM. If you see any of the following in the code, it is not allowed:
```
<embed>
<iframe>
<object>
<script>
<form>
javascript
flash
```
shockwave`

See http://support.wordpress.com/code/ for more information.

Friendfeed has a lifestreaming widget available in HTML which I’m using on my blog (click my profile to go to it), though I’m currently irritated with FF because it stopped importing my Amazon wish list. Still, I can’t find a better aggregator which also offers an HTML feed widget. So check out http://friendfeed.com
