Nobel Prize Winner of the day Google Gadget
This gadget simply displays a Nobel Prize winner in Literature, with some data, list of works and useful links. The display is random, but you can scroll through the years
This is a live link to the gadget - try it!
The reasons for developing this were two: I am interested in literature, and thought that I should read them all (I haven't yet...) and I wanted to try a little ajax. So this uses Ajax and Google gadgets, where the framework has some ajax support.
This gadget would work well both on your iGoogle homepage and on your web site or blogg. Add Nobel Prize to your Google homepage
