How do you download a Gmail gadget?

Atachi

I've tried it but when I download it it sends me to WinRAR.

Answer
You need to have Windows Sidebar on your computer to get gadgets.

To get more gadgets, right-click the sidebar icon on your bottom system tray and select "Add Gadgets"

When you are in the gadgets, click on "Get more gadgets online" link.

Choose the one you would like and click on it.

When it brings you to the description and download window, click the Download button. This will open another window.

Read the Submission specs then click Install. It should install to your computer and show up in your windows sidebar gadget vault.

To select the gadget to use on the desktop, click the + button on your sidebar. Or right click the sidebar option on your system tray and select Open, then choose the one you want.

Why do some gadgets just not work in gmail that work in igoogle?

.

For example: I wanted to only use gmail rather than also using igoogle. So I tried to put the same weather gadget I used in igoogle in gmail. But it didn't work.

Is there any way to get past that, by changing the code in the gadget?

Answer
You can't drag any gadgets into gmail. If you want to view a weather gadget then install google desktop. Don't know about Mac, but Ubuntu and Windows Vista and 7 all have built in gadgets.

Gmail workaround?

heavens_mi

My work has just blocked gmail. Is there a work around that I am missing? I can log into My Account, but can not access my mail!
Help me please.
Thanks

Answer
Do the following. First, get both a Yahoo! Messenger with Voice account (yourname@yahoo.com) and a Google Talk account (yourname@gmail.com)--download both. Second, download Google Desktop and attach as a sidebar on your desktop (place as a taskbar icon and rightclick for sidebar & other options). Third, send your new Yahoo with Voice email to your new gmail account. And last, goto Add Gadgets (Add+) at the top of sidebar and add Google Talk. Now you're fully integrated (with additional Messengers) and not prevented on any screen. laura

Gmail Gadgets Won't Add!?

Ela

I've been trying to add gadgets to my Gmail, I've enabled the feature in Labs and i believe I have the correct URL (http://www.brianngo.net/ig/facebook.xml), I copy and paste it, then click Add. It tells me that the Gadget specification wrong or there's a problem with the gadget. This is not the only gadget I've had a problem with.

help with my blog on gmail?

eve32453

for marketing class i had to create a blog on gmail, but i don't know how does it work, how change the setting and put my profile on top, and videos and all that. i know that where it says add gadget you can add pictures and videos, but how????

Answer
A blog about Gmail? (you can't make a blog inside Gmail).... What you can do is sign up for an account in wordpress.com and there you can create a blog about Gmail, or you can sign-up an account in Gmail, and create a blog in Blogger.


About adding videos and photos, just work around on the features and see how they work. You can do trial and error before publishing them, and besides if this is a new blog, it would rarely get noticed if you are doing some changes on your blog.... See what is the best design you can have...


1. Create an account in Wordpress.com or Blogger.com
2. Choose a name of your blog, and URL / website address
3. Choose a Theme / Template
4. Re-arrange your Sidebar
5. Create an About Me page
6 Publish your first posts

About videos, you can embed videos from Youtube, about photos, you can add them from your computer or from a website, just copy the URL of the exact photo you want to copy.

Gmail Email Canceling Gadet?

It is called Undo Send.
Just enter your Gmail setting, go to Labs and click Enable near the Undo Send feature.

I need a cool gadget from 2010 for a contest, and the Ipad is excluded, what should I use?

Tyler Z

I need to present my object and talk about why it's the coolest gadget from 2010, but the teacher has already excluded the iPad. Please give me suggestions.

Answer
Tyler Z, the best choice for you would be Nook Color from Barnes & Noble which is a hybrid Android device, much more than just an e-Reader but not a full tablet as it doesn't have a camera (but iPad also doesnât have one.) Nook Color has been picked as the editors choice by PC Magazine while pro reviewers of other sites (CNET, ZDNet, Engadget, AllThingsDigital, NY Times etc.) mentioned that it tested to be pretty fast for apps and PDF's, and has a beautiful screen. You can watch videos and use Android applications on it. It has a new generation screen which is anti-glare coated and is better performing in sunlight and for reducing eye strain than iPad's. Nook Color has several apps that already come with the device (Pandora Internet radio, QuickOffice, etc.) Also, Barnes & Noble recently released Nook SDK and Nook Developer platform that will allow most of the existing 100,000 Android apps be ported to it. You can use the Social Settings screen to link your NOOK Color to your Facebook account and your Twitter account. You can also import all your contacts from your Google Gmail account. Once you have linked to Facebook and Twitter and set up email contacts, you can lend and borrow books, recommend books, and share favorite quotes with your friends.
