My first widget, be gentle. Wanted to start with something basic and easy. Similar in idea to the much nicer looking Google Toolbar widget, but using a drop down list instead of the thumbnail images. Will update soon with the full gamut of Google offerings. Future ideas: 1. pick which sites you want to appear in the list. 2. expand widget when search is done to show the first few results, with the option to jump to a full tab in Opera. 3. add own search engines?
It's a nice idea, but it doesn't really work. Could just be me, mind. Not too shabby for a first try. Keep up the good work.
Hm, I agree, it doesn't work. That's strange, it was working when I uploaded it. Investigation to ensue...
Updated. Hopefully it works now (working for me at the moment, anyway). Added a few more search options.
Not really usefull, simply because of the fact that opera already has a google search thingy.
With Opera 9's search creation abilities, really any search widget is useless, yes.
v2.0: Now you can configure which sites appear in the dropdown. If there are any options you think should be there and aren't, let me know. It's easy to add them in. v3.0 or widget spinoff idea: Add your own search engines.
