Ooooh, give me some of that Widgety Goodness

Keeping up to date with new ideas, platforms and trends is a huge part of any web professional’s job; knowing what works, and what doesn’t – and finding appropriate business models which fit well with these new forms of media – is the challenge facing thousands of us. It’s always exciting and sometimes a little confusing, and finding the best information available is often a major headache. So thank goodness for Widgety Goodness, a one day conference in Brighton aimed at answering the four big questions for would-be widgetizers:

• what role do widgets play in online strategy?
• what tools are available for the development and distribution of widgets?
• what destinations do widgets go to and how do I get them there?
• how do I track and analyse widgets once they have left home?

Many of the leading lights in the World of Widgets will be talking about the various aspects of widgetisation, including Ivan Pope (Widgety Goodness and Snipperoo), Will McInnes (Nixon McInnes), Russell Davies (Open Intelligence Agency and NMA’s third most influential person in New Media) and Mike Butcher from Techcrunch.
