The Mobile Widgets blog is run by Betavine - a group of people that are passionate about mobile development and innovation. We’re especially excited about the possibilities of mobile widgets, and what you can do with them.

What is a mobile widget?

It’s a simple web site or application written in HTML, CSS and JavaScript. If you can build a web page, you can create a mobile widget. The great thing though, is that the widget is installed right on the phone, so users can interact easily with it while on the go.
