Chumby - It’s So Cool…I Want One!!!
I’m going to keep my Chumby channel widget at the bottom of my blog permanently (probably), but I’m going to show you what it is in this entry. The gadget isn’t available to buy yet, but widgets with your own specified channels are available to put on your site or blog for now. Games, news, sports, ape cams, clocks, weather, photos (from your Flickr acct, but not from a specific category and I wanted my pet category, so I didn’t put my Flickr acct in a channel), and what I’ve chosen…Stuff on My Cat and Stuff on My Mutt. I can’t wait until the actual Chumbys (Chumbies?) are available because I think it would be perfect for my mom and Leigh-Ann’s mom, since they’re not online much, if at all. We can program our blogs for our moms. I can program both of our blogs for my mom, but I think I rant too much for Leigh-Ann’s mom to read daily. The Chumby will be ready to buy this summer and they say it’ll be under $200 and it won’t require a monthly fee, it’ll just connect to your wireless network. Too cool!
