Widget Death Match

It’s finally here – Widget Death Match round 2!

Before you consider the contestants, a reminder of the results of Widget Death Match round 1: despite his (now discontinued) awesome interactive Star Trek game, Simon lost by concession to Mike’s irie Reggae Widget.

Now, Mike’s back. Initially challenged by Andrew “Wags” W., Mike put together this slick all-in-one widget. Facing such an impressive display of widgetosity, Wags never got up the guts to enter the widget octagon, but young Danny M came out from nowhere with 2 different widgets to challenge Mike: a pirates vs. ninjas game widget and his own brand of all-in-one features.

Now it’s up to you, the judges to decide! If you like a widget, leave a comment in the respective post. We’ll add up the comments and declare a winner soon.

Danny’s quickly become a master of the KickApps App Studio, recently releasing yet another multi-faceted widget. In this case, it’s a combo widget that shows videos, blog posts, and message board discussions from KickDeveloper.com, where Danny helps moderate the message boards and answer questions about, among other things, the KickApps App Studio.

Here’s a new Widget from the KickApps App studio, built by widget adept Danny M. It integrates multiple flash games (one for pirates, one for ninjas) into a single widget:

Ever wanted a simple Twitter widget, or a Flickr widget that’s styled to match your personality? How about a slick blog widget that you can post on MySpace, Facebook, or any other social network? Why not get all 3 at once, via the KickApps App Studio?

Here’s another one from Widget Maestro Mike Sommers:

Mike explains:

“It’s cool because it allows me to easily import all my activity from Flickr (where I store my photos), Twitter (where I save souls) and Wordpress (where I blog) into my SommersPeople community profile page… Write once, publish everywhere!”

So there’s 1 widget that combines Flicker, Twitter, and a personal blog. Mike then pasted it on his social network profile page, just for good measure.

Danny’s warming up for Widget Death Match Round 2 with a few practice widgets, such as this Facebook widget that shows his friends feed:

On Wednesday, on his way home from work, Mike sliced his leg open on a fire hydrant in a freak accident. He came back to the office bandage the 4″ cut, then headed home to get stapled up in the ER, but not before he created this widget (warning: if you click the widget, you will see something very gross):

Our previous link to Pam’s Think Simple Now widget wasn’t working, so here’s an updated version for you!:

Well, some people just couldn’t wait for round 2, so here are a bunch of intermission entries from various KickApps peeps:

Round 1 came to an early conclusion as Simon conceded victory to Mike! In Simon’s own words:
